Introduction

In Episode Six of Obscurum, titled "Otherworldly Horizons," host Gabe Lennors delves deeper into the enigmatic drone sightings that have perplexed rural America since 2019. This episode meticulously unpacks the various threads surrounding the mysterious aircraft observed over Nebraska and Colorado, exploring local testimonies, potential technological explanations, and the involvement of federal agencies.

The Drone Sightings Phenomenon

The episode opens with a recap of the unsettling drone sightings that began in 2019. These unidentified aerial phenomena, referred to locally as "mma" (multi-mission aircraft), have been a source of fear and speculation. Brendan Patrick Hughes discusses the advanced capabilities of these drones, noting their ability to "pinpoint a stray cat in the middle of a wildfire" (02:20).

Notable Quote:

"They can pinpoint a stray cat in the middle of a wildfire somewhere. The man mentioned in the article who's apparently taking responsibility for the sightings is this guy named Matthew Spencer." – Brendan Patrick Hughes 02:20

Local Investigations

Gabe narrates his investigative journey, beginning with a visit to the Yuma Pioneer newspaper. He meets Tony Rail, the seasoned editor who first reported the drone sightings. Tony reveals that the unusual reports started around New Year's Eve when both he and his children observed the mysterious aircraft (04:00).

Notable Quote:

"Pretty sure it was in December when it started. Started getting reports about him. I think it was New Year's Eve when my kids said they thought they saw one too." – Tony Rail 05:00

Encounter with Tim Colin

Gabe's investigation leads him to Tim Colin, a local resident with a peculiar story. Tim recounts his alleged abduction by extraterrestrial beings, who implanted a mysterious chip in his wrist. His experience raises questions about the true nature of the drone sightings and their possible extraterrestrial origins (06:13).

Notable Quote:

"I had a piece of metal in my wrist... It had to be interesting. The implant was put in my body and it didn't have no portal entry." – Tim Colin 07:39

Theories: Oil and Gas Industry Involvement

Seeking alternative explanations, Gabe interviews Jack Elston of Black Swift Technologies in Boulder, Colorado. Jack discusses the legitimate uses of drones in scientific and industrial applications, particularly in the oil and gas sector for infrastructure inspection and methane leak detection. However, he dismisses the idea that his company is responsible for the mysterious drones, suggesting instead that unauthorized experiments might be at play (09:29).

Notable Quote:

"The most plausible thing I heard, though, is that it was somebody that is conducting experiments as far as figuring out whether these things could do perimeter surveillance for missile sites." – Jack Elston 11:19

FAA Files and Agent Bumberger

Gabe uncovers internal FAA communications through Douglas Johnson of the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies. An email from Special Agent Michael Bumberger indicates that the FAA was actively pursuing leads on Matthew Spencer, the suspected operator of the drones. This revelation points to possible government interest or involvement in the drone sightings (13:15).

Notable Quote:

"The FAA would want to provide as much transparency as possible. I was wrong." – Brendan Patrick Hughes 16:16

Meeting Matthew Spencer

Determined to confront the man behind the mysterious drones, Gabe arranges a meeting with Matthew Spencer at the Cowtown Museum in Wichita, Kansas. Matthew reveals that his group tracks high-value aerospace targets, primarily focusing on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs). Despite his claims, Matthew remains evasive about the broader implications and the extent of his operations (19:23).

Notable Quote:

"What we're doing is we track high-value aerospace targets. Our main focus is to go after the UAPs that are within the news right now." – Matthew Spencer 20:29

Unraveling the Mystery

As Gabe digs deeper, he discovers discrepancies in Matthew's accounts and the FAA's official stance. Agent Bumberger's reluctance to comment and the unverified reports of larger drones suggest a layered complexity in the drone sightings. The episode builds suspense as Gabe contemplates the possibility of non-human technology and the potential cover-ups by authorities (23:11).

Notable Quote:

"When you have drones in the area, there's always a lie. So who's gonna be right on the why? And it's always the facts and the burden of proofs on you." – Matthew Spencer 22:04

Conclusion

Episode Six of Obscurum leaves listeners on the edge with unresolved questions about the true nature of the drone sightings. Gabe's relentless pursuit of the truth uncovers layers of deception, possible extraterrestrial involvement, and governmental secrecy. As the investigation continues, the episode sets the stage for future revelations in the quest to unveil the shocking truths behind "Invasion of the Drones."
