Ross Coulthart’s Reality Check series went live in summer of 2024 covering the UAP topic and the roll-out of citizen-lead Disclosure, and the reveals on the show only seem to be intensifying.

Today’s drop of his weekly Q&A is no different, and the questions I’ve noticed lately are only getting more pointed. You can watch that in full here:

Up front, Coulthart is asked about Spielberg and the new trailer this week for his upcoming film Disclosure Day.

Anyone paying attention in this space is aware that there’s been a lot deep-diving into both the Times Square and LA billboards and then the new trailer dropped for the film this week. There are plenty to find on YouTube and X, so I won’t burden this post with those, but I did post about some of the possible connections a few days ago:

One thing Coulthart points is that a man who goes by the pseudonym Chase Brandon was a former CIA Hollywood-liasion tasked with shaping the narrative about the nature of the UAP reality.

Chase Brandon is the author of The Cryptos Conundrum, published in June 2012:

Former CIA undercover operative Chase Brandon takes us deep into the mystery of Cryptos, a work of art containing a seemingly uncrackable code, in The Cryptos Conundrum.

A fifteen-foot-tall steel sculpture stands in the courtyard of the Central Intelligence Agency, emblazoned with a message that no one can decipher. The three-inch-high letters on the sculpture form a coded message that is central to the survival of mankind — a message hidden in plain sight, displayed in a public space, with the full text available to anyone who has an internet connection.

One man knows exactly what the statue’s message says — because he created it.

Dr. Jonathan S. Chalmers heads a CIA unit tasked with containing the greatest secret our government has ever kept―and planning for its consequences. He alone knows the full story of the threats that face America. Threats that would terrify us if we knew them. Threats that have shaped our country’s past, present, and future. Threats that have become his life’s work, requiring all his talents, all his energy, and even the lives of members of his family.

If Chalmers can’t save us, nobody can.

Former CIA operative Chase Brandon tells a high-intensity, cosmic tale that will leave readers breathless.

In June of 2024, Matt Ford on his Good Trouble Show interviewed Dr. Richard O’Connor about the Nazca Mummies, and O’Connor talked about how Chase Brandon was Spielberg’s handler on his film Close Encounters of the Third Kind:

The full interview between Ford and Dr. O’Connor can be watched here:

Dr. Robert O’Connor was friends with Jesse Marcel Jr., whose father was part of the Roswell wreckage retrieval team. He was the founder of the Jesse A. Marcel Library in Montana:

Here’s an interview with O’Connor the Great Falls Tribune:

UFO captured? Clancy man believes he proves they exist

CLANCY, Mont. — For nearly two years Dr. Richard O’Connor has kept two cameras pointed at the sky with the deep hope and belief that something might be out there.

And then, after nearly 280,000 photos captured by motion detection, it happened.

Or maybe not.

But O’Connor’s findings of what he believes are two unidentified flying objects has set off a barrage of email exchanges, some of them angry, in the community of UFO fans and experts.

About noon on Nov. 4, his cameras captured five photos of something flying through the skies of Montana that is hard for some to explain.

“It appears to be a light source,” O’Connor said. “In my opinion, even a hardened skeptic would say ‘Wow, that is what I expect a UFO would look like.’”

But his discovery has sparked some debate, leaving the doctor to find his own photo experts to determine what his cameras may have captured.

The answers to this mystery remain up in the air.

O’Connor comes by his fascination with UFOs honestly. He said that for more than 25 years he was friends with Jesse Marcel Jr., perhaps best known for being a longtime doctor in Helena. O’Connor, now retired, worked as an anesthesiologist at St. Peter’s Hospital in Helena.

But Marcel may be even better known for something that happened to him as a child in New Mexico in July 1947.

His father, Maj. Jesse Marcel, was sent by his base commander to investigate the crash of a UFO on a ranch outside of Roswell Army Air Field. He loaded some of the wreckage into his vehicle and drove it home to show Jesse Jr., who was then 10.

They couldn’t make sense of what they were seeing. According to Marcel Jr’s Sept. 1, 2013, obituary in the Helena Independent Record, The U.S. Army Air Corps issued a press release saying a “flying saucer” was found, but public uproar forced them to retract the statement and say a weather balloon had been found instead.

Those who were at the crash site were then sworn to secrecy. But in the ’70s Marcel Sr. and his son began speaking about what they had seen, believing the coverup was a grave injustice to the public.

Marcel Jr. had a distinguished career not only as a doctor, but in the military as well. He was 76 when he died.

And after knowing him for nearly a quarter century, O’Connor deeply believes Marcel saw what he saw as a child.

O’Connor, 60, even set up the Jesse A. Marcel Jr. Library on his rural property and his friend was there for its dedication.

He says he told him, “Your story is important and to continue to educate the public we should open a library.”

And then he installed two Reconyx Hyperfire PC 900 Trail cameras on the southeast corner of his house with the goal of educating the public about the UFO phenomena. When triggered by motion, the cameras, which are about 30 feet off the ground, shoot 20 photos at approximately 1-second intervals.

He also posted a message on the Internet, giving the latitude and longitude of the cameras in the hopes that aliens would see it.

“Come, let us take your picture,” he said, reasoning that if they had the capability to get here they would also have the ability to find people who are reaching out to them.

The cameras were programmed to take photographs of moving objects. Among the 280,000 photos are a vast array of birds, squirrel tails and treetops dancing in the wind.

And then on Nov. 4, O’Connor says he noticed something.

“Basically what you see it a very symmetrical, smooth and reflective surface that appears to have his own light source,” he said.

Neither the FAA, nor the Air Force nor NASA handle UFO calls anymore, an FAA spokesman said, adding they are referred to National UFO Reporting Center, an organization that investigates UFO sightings and/or alien contacts. It was founded in 1974 by Robert J. Gribble.

The website features listings of UFO sightings by state. For instance, on Nov. 18, someone reported seeing three flashes of green light that lit up the entire sky after a power outage. On Nov. 11 in Great Falls, someone reported seeing a silent triangular object heading east to west before turning smoothly south and going out of sight. Massive in size. On Sept. 26, someone in Great Falls reported seeing a green glowing fireball.

O’Connor, who says he has no knowledge of how to manipulate photos on a computer, forwarded his photos to NUFORC, which were there for a few weeks and then came a query to them from the Tribune.

Peter Davenport, now the head of the NUFORC, forwarded the photos to “a skilled photo-analyst,” requesting that he try to ‘extract’ more information about the object than mere visual inspection would permit.”

NUFORC is a self-funded website that Davenport describes as a “labor of love.”

“I do it so people have a place to call if they see a UFO,” he said.

The first review was heartening.

“Bottom line, I think the images are real, but remain a mystery,” the photo analyst wrote. “I suspect the lights in the first and last photos are sun reflections off of something rather than any propulsion system.”

And higher up in his assessment he wrote: “Thus, I conclude it is a puzzle to solve rather than a fake.”

But another analyst didn’t agree and angered O’Connor by proclaiming the photos “100 percent fake.”

O’Connor expressed his anger in an email to Davenport, saying he would get an unbiased photograph analysis. Davenport also suggests that O’Connor submit his photos to someone whose reputation he trusts.

O’Connor has also offered to take a polygraph.

O’Connor now plans to meet with various experts in photo analysis to get their take on his pictures.

Here’s Matt Ford covering Spielberg’s interview with Stephen Colbert two years ago about Spielberg’s devoted interest in the UFO topic:

Coulthart also mentions that Ronald Reagan and his cabinet were shown Close Encounters, although this was actually E.T., and Reagan said that this was closer to reality than what was known.

Here’s Reagan’s 1987 speech about an alien threat on official C-Span UN record:

Here’s an excellent recent post about the supposed briefing Reagan received on the reality of UFOs and non-human intelligence:

After the questions about Spielberg’s knowledge of the UAP/NHI reality, Coulthart is asked about the spheres that have been seen about Patrick Jackson’s theory on how they’re part of a Global Defense Network and intentionally stay away from humans to prevent damage from their radiation. He recently interviewed Jackson, who’s been making the rounds the past few years:

As part of his presentation to APEC around six months ago, Orestis Lazanakis talked about his research into implants and his theory that orbs are sent by spheres as a safer means for checking in humans:
