Big Pharma. The deep state. The crisis actors. Alien life. Spy agencies and cover ups. Whatever it is, award winning journo Richard Baker and Dr Nick Coatsworth are your guides on the search for the kernel of truth. Conspiracies are everywhere right now. But, we don’t peddle theories, we go to their point of origin and follow the breadcrumbs to sort the bullsh*t from the verified, while keeping an open mind to things that can’t be explained. Rich has spent years exposing the crooked and corrupt, and Nick has copped death threats from people who thought he was one of THEM. They know what real cover-ups look like, and they also know what happens when paranoia meets the algorithm. Sometimes the conspiracy is real. Sometimes it's designed to sell you on something. Often, it's both. Our mission is to entertain and inform. Rather than condemn and judge.

The Soviet military ran a classified investigation called Program SETKA from 1978 to 1990 - twelve years, thousands of filed reports, senior military personnel as witnesses - and when the USSR collapsed and the files were briefly, partially opened, what came out was strange enough that the Russian government quietly closed them again. That was 1993. Nobody in the western press followed up. And Putin, who knows where every other body is buried, has never once been asked about it on the record. So what does it mean when the country with the second-largest nuclear arsenal and a seventy-year history of UAP investigation has said almost nothing - while the Americans have said just enough to make you stop asking? This week, Richard Baker and Dr. Nick Coatsworth go through what the evidence actually shows, what's been conveniently overlooked, and what the gap between those two things tells us. Program SETKA: what the Soviet military was actually investigating, the rank of the officers filing reports, and what the partially declassified files described before the archive door closed again in 1993 The Petrozavodsk incident: the 1977 event over a major Russian city witnessed by hundreds of people including police and harbour workers, reported on the front page of Tass, and never officially explained by any government that was asked Putin and the disclosure question: every on-record statement he has made about UAPs, what a former Russian defence minister said publicly in 2012 that would have ended any western official's career, and why neither statement got a follow-up The military overlap: the specific coordinates where Russian UAP sightings cluster, what else is at those coordinates, and wheth…","meta_description":"Russia has been tracking unidentified aerial phenomena since before the term existed.
