## Resource

This week we’re discussing Ross Coulthart’s accusation that Lue Elizondo was previously part of a legacy program effort to limit UFO disclosure, and how it affects Lue’s consideration for a “UAP Czar” role. We also discuss persistent rumors that some sort of announcement is coming, perhaps on the July 8th anniversary of Roswell, and the fact that Dr Beatriz Villaroel is participating in a new initiative to search NASA archives for UAPs and other anomalies.
