Goodbye stigma, hello scientists falling over each other to investigate UAPs, love it, bring your colleagues!:)

I can barely tie my shoes somedays let alone understand some of the things discussed on here, but I real enjoy listening to brian and these types of podcasts.

[primetimedurkheim]

I find myself critiquing this channel while overlooking how fortunate we are to have these sort of discussions broadcasted. I really appreciate your networking abilities and your natural motivation for this project, Curt. You're doing a good thing.

I was about to go to sleep...having to work in 7 hours..and half smashed with wine and beer...but here i am. Its like a star trek 60s episode, love it.

"im young but Brian is younger" que Brian's little giggle. Of all the depth of conversation and ideas I really enjoyed this little moment. I can learn a lot from everyone's respectful passion in this interview. Thank you, Curt, Brian, and Lee

[t-rex]

Excellent episode! Watching great minds have this level of respectful discourse is a real treat. Curt, thanks for putting this together!

[Bigtooly]

Brian Keating seems to be doing the media rounds lately -- and i havent missed a second

[SUPERFunStick]

This is the kind of debate I've been waiting my entire life to witness. You're literally making my dreams a reality with this channel! Intelligent professional scientific people discussing the reality of intelligent aliens. Absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much Curt!

[lile]

Thank goodness episode 2 isn't available yet. I'd never get anything done. Curt, TOE is getting to be as addictive as Netflix.

“The environment is the shepherd, then the sheep can be the shepherd”…brilliant

[CoreyHart]

More alien pods. Love to see it. This channel is important for alot of reasons but having someone like Curt spe fiscally, with his sensibilities and unique disposition, makes for a much more nuanced and non biased discussion. Love to see it.

[JiminiCrikkit]

I think this is the best I've heard Brian speak about his own thoughts on the climate of science today... Kurt please just continue what you're doing because it's exemplary. Lee's thinking makes a lot of sense and I hope it's giving people food for thought and I very much look forward to hearing more about his work and how it's accepted.

[DrBrianKeating]

This was an absolute BLAST! Looking forward to Round 2. Unless Lee is too scared!!

[Auxik]

They misunderstood, talking about what Lue Elizondo said. Lue never said these are "extraterrestrial", he said first and foremost they don't know, but they could be from outer space, inner space or the space in between.

Being absolutely fascinated with the subject myself, I feel that we may not even have the ability to comprehend it.

Edit: I also 100% agree with you about not wanting to believe because of the implications of what it could mean. It's terrifying when you really think deeply about it.

[SteveRunciman]

Lee Cronin is the best guest you've had so far.

[exploringeclecticism]

This was a truly incredible conversion and really put so many amazing topics into perspective in such brilliant ways. Thank you guys for your generosity in releasing this to public.

[starxcrossed]

“Non-God bless you” “This cup has a soul!” And preferring Leibniz over Newton… I can’t get over these two. Hilarious. Fun to listen to, thanks a lot Curt. Edit: assembly theory WOW. Great idea for sure

[towlie_the_towel]

Curt please don’t stop asking the questions we’re all wanting to ask to understand the things we don’t know 👍 and Thankyou

[ryancrozier]

This pod cast and other similar ones are amazing because some one can sort of audit a phd level class.

[ryancrozier]

The discernment between LIFE and "Conscious" SENTIENCE is certainly a noble debate.
