UAP Files Podcast

Four mysterious UFO sightings. Multiple witnesses. Photographic evidence. And an RAF surveillance aircraft conducting an unusual flight pattern near the location of one of the sightings.

UAP Files Podcast S4|E43

In this episode of UAP Files Podcast, I'm joined by Ash Ellis, British UFO investigator, author and founder of UFO Identified and the UK UFO Database.
Ash has spent years collecting, documenting and investigating UFO sightings across Britain. His database now contains more than 2,000 UK UFO reports, helping researchers identify potential patterns, hotspots and cases that might otherwise have gone unnoticed.
But one investigation in particular stands out.
In April 2021, four independent witnesses reported remarkably similar white, kidney-bean-shaped objects in the skies over different parts of the UK. Photographs and videos accompanied the reports.
Even more intriguingly, Ash's investigation uncovered flight-tracking data showing an RAF AWACS aircraft operating near Grimsby shortly after one of the sightings, apparently conducting an unusual flight pattern.
Was this simply a coincidence, a routine military exercise, or something worthy of further investigation?
We also discuss Ash's own childhood encounter with a large black triangular UFO, the growing number of reported black triangle sightings across Britain, his experiences submitting Freedom of Information requests to the RAF and police, and why he believes the UK urgently needs better UFO research.

TV presenter turned psychotherapist Melinda Messenger felt so strongly that she had to go to Wales, alone with her two dogs and somewhere with a sea view, that she booked it there and then and left. On her second night, three large, sun-sized golden spheres appeared on the horizon above the sea. So she asked them to come back so she could film them, and she says they did, again and again through the night.
In this clip:
• The pull to go to three specific places in Wales she had never been to
• Three golden, sun-sized orbs over the sea at dusk, and asking them to come back so she could film them
• About 10 appearances through the night, in triangle formations, merging and splitting
• Orbs splitting into a formation of about 10, with three becoming stars and then crosses, while her camera showed something different
• Her dogs reacting with no sound, a pulsing feeling in her chest, and a “scanning” light in the clouds right above her
• Waking at 3am, and one last orb at 6am

Dr. Bruce Rapuano is a scientist whose career has spanned molecular biology to astrophysics, and the author of “Dominion Lost: A Scientist’s Own Alien Abduction Encounters.” In this clip from UAP Files Podcast S2E17, Bruce talks us through his earliest memories of the beings, and the summer night in 1961, aged 6, when he says he saw a strange polished craft from his bedroom window and woke up somewhere else.
In this clip:
• A “sense memory” from age 2–3 of tall beings he felt were his mentors, and a sense of abandonment afterwards
• Summer 1961 in Connecticut: a glint of light and “the strangest looking airplane I’d ever seen”
• Turning away “as if under command”, falling asleep and waking up on what he took to be an exam table
• Dozens of humanoid beings walking a hallway, and telling them “you’re not my doctors”
• The hand on his chest, the garage-door-sized doorway and the sense of many rooms
• Why he felt no fear as a child, only indignation and curiosity
• A second encounter at 12 or 13, and his thoughts on Betty and Barney Hill
These are Bruce’s own recollections. Watch the full episode for his scientific approach to the subject.

Camille James Harman is an actress (Vice, Shameless) and a long-time UFO experiencer. In late 1995, soon after moving to Los Angeles, she started having strange physical symptoms. Then, walking the dog in Silver Lake, she and her boyfriend saw their first UFO. In this clip from UAP Files Podcast S3E23, Camille tells me what followed: the sleep paralysis, the MUFON meeting, and what she recalled under hypnosis.
In this clip:
• Months of unexplained symptoms that she later recognised as pregnancy symptoms
• The black, shimmering object above a tree in Silver Lake, and calling the MUFON hotline
• Sleep paralysis, and an electronic-sounding voice saying her name
• Hearing Kim Carlsberg speak, and a checklist that matched “like 85%” of her symptoms
• Her regression with Barbara Lamb: a solid blue column of light, a white misty room and robed beings with large black eyes
• A second regression with Yvonne Smith, a pinprick triangle on her leg and a spherical object her dentist found in her tooth
These are Camille’s own recollections, including memories recalled under hypnosis. Watch the full episode for the rest of her story.

Scott Gearen is a former U.S. Air Force Pararescueman (PJ) who served with the 24th Special Tactics Squadron and has almost 2,000 hours of flight time in and under helicopters. In this clip from UAP Files Podcast S3E8, Scott tells me about two encounters he still can’t explain.
In this clip:
• 2004, Wisconsin: sitting around a campfire with four family members when he suddenly feels paralysed, like sleep paralysis while awake
• Coming out of it to find a beam of light shining straight down on the group, like a giant flashlight
• Why it couldn’t be a helicopter: “there’s no wind, there’s no sound”
• The other four men sitting motionless, then the light switching off and a dark object blocking out the stars as it moved away
• Wondering, years later, whether it was some kind of evaluation, and why his companions say they felt and saw nothing
• 2019, Panama City Beach: from the 22nd floor of his hotel he spots a bright, hovering object and photographs it for about an hour on his phone and a Sony a6000
• “I wonder if this knows I’m looking at it,” and what he says the object did next
These are Scott’s own recollections. Watch the full episode for his photos, his near-death experience and the rest of his story.
