Summary

Dr. Michael Sala discusses his background in peace diplomacy and the creation of "exo-politics," explaining how his academic career ended after he attempted to integrate UFO studies into his curriculum. The episode covers the 1954 disappearance of President Eisenhower, analyzing whistleblower testimony that places him at Edwards Air Force Base rather than a dentist. Sala also shares stories from East Timor and Kosovo, while touching on the 1977 Grenada incident and the implications of the Space Force for disclosure.
