#5 - Lt. Tim McMillan

This week I am joined by Lt. Tim McMillan. Tim is a retired police Lieutenant with a background in cognitive psychology. He has written for Vice, Popular Mechanics, and now for his own publication ‘The Debrief’ on defense related issues, disruptive technology, and more. He is particularly known for his work in uncovering a wealth of information on our government’s interest in UAPs or Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon.

Tim and I discuss a wide array of topics starting with his background in cognitive psychology. We get into why he decided to become a police officer, what drove him to speak out on the issue of systemic racism in policing, and why he ultimately left that profession. We talk about his UFO sighting, what eventually led him to become an investigative journalist, and what keeps him on the UFO beat. We also discuss consciousness, human perception, why the UFO topic angers me at times, and we get into a really deep discussion about whether or not our government is actively involved in a disinformation campaign regarding UFOs, or if there is really something to all of this.

I can’t recommend enough that you read Tim’s pieces from The Debrief that can be found in the “necessary reading” section of the episode show notes before tackling this episode. If you’re unfamiliar with the news Tim has recently broken, you’re liable to get lost.
