I was interviewed by the BBC about yesterday’s release of UFO files from the US Government, “The UFO community has been waiting for answers. Has the Pentagon delivered?”
The article is behind a paywall but I will share that the parts of my interview that were included addressed the insubstantial nature of the content eluding to anything non-human along with the need for more definitive context.

“Many ufologists and UFO enthusiasts were keenly aware that, while they found the release “underwhelming,” the tranche of information could likely be revelatory to the average reader.
“These aren’t really just aimed for people who are in the UFO community, but … the American people and the general public - to give some kind of reassurance of transparency,” said Daniel Jones, 36, a fellow admin with Ege of the Texas UFO Network’s page - which has more than 25,000 members.
Jones, who got engaged last year at a UFO festival, said that he knew “this first batch of files wasn’t, more than likely, going to contain anything extremely substantial” – but he’s “hopeful to see more definition on the part of the government” in future releases.”
