UAP Files Podcast

In this episode, I’m joined by filmmaker Adam Pillon to explore one of the most compelling UFO cases ever captured on film—the Cote UFO photograph.Taken in 1971 during a government aerial mapping mission over Costa Rica, this image stands out for its clarity, credibility, and the fact it was captured on analog film using a high-precision cartographic camera. Decades later, it still hasn’t been convincingly explained.Adam, alongside producer Megan Woomer, set out to investigate this case in their documentary The Cote Photo. What started as a passion project quickly became something much deeper—connecting them with witnesses, researchers, and the original film itself.In this conversation, we cover:The story behind the Cote UFO photographWhat modern high-resolution scans revealedWhy this case is considered a cornerstone of UFO historyFirst-hand accounts from people in the regionHow making the film changed Adam’s perspectiveWhether you’re new to the topic or deep into UAP research, this is a case worth understanding.Want to support the channel?

UFO Debate Intensifies as Governments, Media, and Public Curiosity CollideThe global conversation around UFOs is entering a new and potentially pivotal phase.In this news update, we break down the latest developments as political momentum, institutional involvement, and cultural interest converge in 2026.In the United States, Donald Trump has publicly backed efforts to declassify UFO-related files, citing growing public demand for transparency. Alongside comments from JD Vance and other political figures, the subject is now firmly part of mainstream political debate. Regardless of the debate around their angle, we can't deny they are talking about it.Meanwhile, lawmakers are pushing for access to 46 classified military videos believed to show unexplained aerial phenomena, with reports suggesting capabilities that may exceed known human technology.Behind the scenes, the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office is under increasing scrutiny as officials determine what information can be released to the public.In the UK, renewed attention follows the passing of Nick Pope, a former Ministry of Defence investigator who examined hundreds of cases and argued that some sightings defy conventional explanation.At the same time, popular culture continues to shape perception, with renewed interest in Bob Lazar: Area 51 & Flying Saucers bringing long-standing claims back into the spotlight.Taken together, these developments suggest that UFOs are no longer confined to the fringes—they are becoming a focal point of global attention.Whether this leads to genuine breakthroughs or continued mystery, one thing is clear:The UFO question is now firmly in the mainstream—and the world is watching.

What happens when a platform grows far beyond anything you expected?
In this episode of The Quiet Signal, I reflect on the strange reality of curating information for an audience of hundreds of thousands of people in the UAP space — while trying to remain independent, fair, and grounded.
This isn’t really about any one personality. It’s about the pressure of platforms, the politics of online communities, the challenge of staying neutral in a deeply divided subject, and the very human reality behind running UAP Files. Adapted from a written piece originally published on Substack, this episode is a more personal audio essay on audience, responsibility, criticism, burnout, integrity, and why trying to keep “an entire small city” happy every day is almost impossible.If you’ve ever wondered what it’s actually like behind the scenes of a growing UFO/UAP platform — this one is for you.
In this episode:
Building UAP Files from scratch
Growing an audience of nearly 400,000 people
The pressure of curating information fairly
Personality politics in the UFO world
Why neutrality is harder than it sounds
Balancing research, podcasting, family life, and health
Staying open-minded without becoming performative

The following is an excerpt from a conversation with author and consciousness researcher Anthony Peake.
Anthony explores the boundaries between science and the unexplained — from déjà vu and altered states of consciousness to UFO encounters and the possibility of non-human intelligence.
In his book The Hidden Universe, he suggests that reality may be far more complex than we perceive — potentially involving multiple dimensions and deeper layers of consciousness.
Today we’ll be talking about the nature of reality, the mystery of consciousness, and whether humanity might be interacting with intelligences beyond our understanding.
In this episode I am joined by my co-host Tom Vernon from Tom Vernon UAP (YouTube).

Today’s guest is Al Sandy Suharjono — a longtime UFO researcher from Indonesia with nearly three decades of experience investigating sightings and building one of the country’s oldest UFO research communities, BETA-UFO Indonesia.But what makes Al especially interesting is that he’s not just a researcher. He also served as an Assistant Special Staff member to the President of Indonesia from 2019 to 2024, working in strategic and international affairs — giving him rare proximity to high-level government and decision-making.In this episode, we step outside the usual U.S.-focused narrative and explore Indonesia’s own UFO history — from Cold War-era sightings over Surabaya, to alleged encounters in remote islands, and even claims of a 1997 crash recovery gifted to the CIA.We also get into how culture, religion, and perception shape how UFOs are understood in Indonesia — and why much of this global history has gone largely unnoticed.This is a fascinating conversation that broadens the UFO discussion far beyond the West.Want to support the channel?
