Rebelliously Curious with Chrissy Newton: UFOs, Science, Culture and Futurism

Today I'm joined by Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet, a retired U.S. Navy officer and oceanographer. He previously served as acting Undersecretary and Assistant Secretary of Commerce and acting Administrator and Deputy Administrator of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and he's one of the most prominent voices in the UAP conversation.
His new book, Holding Fast in Heavy Seas, explores leadership, uncertainty, and how to navigate difficult situations when you don't have all the answers.
Today, we're going beyond UAPs in the sky, into questions about secrecy, national security, the military-industrial complex, USOs, and the extraordinary claims surrounding possible underwater activity.
What is real? What isn't? And how do we find the truth when the evidence is incomplete?
Join us as we get rebelliously curious.

A recent study suggests Gen Z is the generation most likely to believe in UFOs, and they're also the generation growing up surrounded by UAP stories across news and social media. But what happens when the government starts releasing more and more information about UFOs?
Does transparency build trust, or can it actually create more suspicion? Today, I'm joined by Yaniv Regev, political theorist and author of The Bulwark article, "Why the Trump Administration Is Telling Us So Much About UFOs." We're talking transparency, populism, Gen Z and UAPs, conspiracy theories, and whether the Trump administration is helping answer the UAP enigma or firehosing the topics to the public.

On June 30 of this year, the House Oversight Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets held a congressional hearing examining one of the CIA's most controversial covert programs: Project MKUltra. More than 50 years after the program was exposed, lawmakers revisited questions about secret human experimentation, accountability, and whether the legacy of MKUltra still has implications today.
Joining me is Stephen Kinzer, award-winning journalist, historian, former New York Times foreign correspondent, and author of Poisoner in Chief, the definitive book on the CIA MKUltra program. 
In this conversation, we'll discuss what the hearing revealed, what history tells us about the program, whether the CIA's pursuit of mind control worked, and how advances in neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and brain-computer interfaces are reshaping the conversation around influence, manipulation, and human consciousness.

I'm joined by Randy Bostick, PhD, a physicist and former Science Advisor for the U.S. Department of Defense's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, or AARO. Today we'll discuss Randy's time at AARO, the challenges facing UAP investigations within the government, how government and civilian scientists can work together, and so much more.

Today, we're joined by Bryce Zabel—award-winning television writer, producer, and journalist, and one of the most respected voices in the UFO and UAP conversation. From creating the cult-classic TV series Dark Skies to co-hosting the popular UFO podcast Need to Know and launching his new podcast Sound, Light, and Frequency, Bryce has spent decades exploring the intersection of media, mystery, and the unknown. In this conversation, we'll dive into the current state of disclosure and Hollywood's role in shaping public perception of the UFO and UAP phenomenon. We'll also discuss Steven Spielberg's film Disclosure Day and the long-standing claims that Spielberg may have been briefed on aspects of the phenomenon through government channels, despite his public statements to the contrary.
Bryce also shares the fascinating story of how Spielberg's team reportedly attempted to stop the production Dark Skies during its original run. Finally, we discuss whistleblower David Grusch's first on-camera interview with NewsNation, the unreleased extended interview conducted by Ross Coulthart at Bryce's home, and why that full conversation has yet to air. We'll explore what may still be missing from the public record and what it could mean for the future of disclosure.
