New Flight Books Review (and Context) for Film: “Age of Disclosure”

We begin toward the end…

A day or so ago I remembered that the film Age of Disclosure was out and decided to review it to see how it rolled relative to my presumptions, as noted in my previous piece, “Disclosure is Over. Accountability is on”, and since also first summarizing an introduction, orientation and number of resources on this topic a number of years ago [posted in this blog as “Encounter - A Deeper look at UAP UFO USO Phenomena”]

Briefly then, relative to Age of Disclosure and others similar… I’ve seen a lot of what appear to be carefully choreographed and timed reassurances from various publicized sources who once again assert that UAP / exotic-NHI are here (yes, I empirically know this to be true, as I’ve experienced it - a lot of it). And global governments are in possession of and tinkering with all kinds of pursued and collected bits (I figured as much… as it stands to reason). Oh, and they’ve tried to cover it all up.

No.

Mmmk.

So, this has all been said again and again, as also pointed out in Skeptic magazine’s piece.

[Outside Link – Michael Shermer’s, Skeptic magazine (Nov 23, 2025): “The Aliens Are Here (Again)! A Review of the Age of Disclosure”https://www.skeptic.com/article/the-aliens-are-here-again-a-review-of-the-age-of-disclosure/ ]

I don’t have a lot to say about the film itself except a few observations which are likely obvious to many already familiar with this topic.

In addition to my own commentary, then, I’m adding a few links to others’ reviews I found at least somewhat aligned with my own thoughts on the subject - though, I do not agree with all of their perspectives.

And how am I qualified, anyway, to even say?

Well, in many ways, who can definitively judge?

Again though, please remember, I’ve personally experienced more that I can track, and which I’ve finally come to believe are authentic exotic-NHI encounters. At least most of them. Still definitely not sure about the black triangle. But, maybe – given innumerable other events.

[Inside Link – West Divide Creek | Black Triangle | UAP NHI https://lbracken.substack.com/p/west-divide-creek-black-triangle ]

My only investment in this topic is to share what I’ve experienced because exotic-NHI has deeply invested in me to more than likely do exactly that – share. As it’s ultimately how we are meant to learn… from one another’s experiences. That is how the field of vision is broadened, truth more readily found.

At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter whether I’m believed by anyone. With or without evidence - which is darn difficult (and not always desirable) to obtain, incidentally. For me, it’s way more about paying attention in the moment. Connecting, studying and learning all that I can. Far less about fumbling with tech to commemorate anything. Often, you take your eyes off a UAP or NHI for a millisecond and, they gone… More on that later.

Whether I am ever believed - even a little by anyone, doesn’t matter to the evolution of my own spirit. I will check-out of this crazy-beautiful, miraculous, wondrous, a little freaky-deaky Hotel California of a potentially dimensional plane knowing. And, others should know too, if they’d like to know – at least insofar as I’ve actually experienced these things (which is all I ever speak to with any degree of certainty) – and, should anyone choose to accept what I’ve experienced… my own perceptions of which are always evolving.

Know that I rarely state anything as definitive. Very very rarely. I experience what I experience, that just is what it is; but all the who, what, where, even ‘when’, why and how… that’s all up to investigative analysis, ongoing.

I know it’s a tough call. None are a bigger skeptic on these matters than I, who constantly seek pattern and proof.

And I neither expect nor pursue allegiance. I have no agenda. I’m just passively presenting a broader truth, as I know it. That’s how we get to truth - it’s an all-sides affair. I’m a pretty reliable seer of what many miss – simply and probably because of common distractions, not paying attention, not wondering, not even really caring one way or another. I’m a noticer of tiny but deeply meaningful things. An empathic nurturer of life. An educational facilitator, a writer. It all just folds together… and it’s probably why NHI bothers to talk to me in their amazing, myriad ways. I listen. I pay very close, studious and investigative, scientific attention to those things.

I may not see new buildings built two years ago within my environment, but I notice other things – lol.

So, for years, I figured – okay… 50/50… truth/not truth. I’ll keep an open mind, bank an event as a maybe, and if I get to a point of embracing its authenticity - ideally through corroborative evidence and ruling out alternatives - then, well… okay… we’ll go from there.

And, once again, after a lot of decades, I finally did embrace that truth last year or maybe it was the year before (not even my own ‘Skinny Bob’ encounter convinced me).

[Outside Link – Portrait (Skinny Bob) https://lbracken.substack.com/p/portrait?r=l7zy8 ]

But a series of complex, combined phenomena did. And cumulatively, those instances along with ‘Skinny Bob’, and the appearance of an apparent craft in conjunction with what appeared in every way, to be the manifestation of a dark entity or force associated with a cyclonic storm… all of that stacked up fast to kind of say to me – ‘Crickey, what is it going to take to convince you?’ Indeed, for the last three years – as I’ve noted before – I’ve been enrolled in immersion-style NHI-U. And, I’m definitely, finally convinced.

In fact, having gone forward in such a manner makes looking back a whole lot more clear. My own experiences are a crowded field. The image associated the attendant article “Encounter…”, for example: When I took that photo, I knew/didn’t know it was a very odd scene. I could feel it deeply so felt compelled to take the photo. The whole composition was beautiful in an eerie scene-from-a-movie kind of way. Driving back to Colorado from Moab that morning while (as a passenger) experimenting with stylized settings on what was then a new camera, I even stylized the scene in similar fashion to better emphasis that effect. Years of research, and discovering patterns of relative meaning within my own interconnecting events later, I now realize that moment and scene were actually very likely UAP related, not just in the cloud formation, but the entire pre-determined set up as it unfolded - for me to capture and look back on later. Another part of a much larger, emerging pattern.

Here’s another part or it: In the midst of ongoing research, study and experience, another photo - very similar to my own emerged. As I recall, it had been taken by the wife of a military man years and years ago. When I saw it, I immediately recognized it and, after a second or two of surreal observation, thought - hey, wait, that’s my photo! But it wasn’t. It was however, meant to get my attention, adding its revelation to the pile of clues ever-heightening.

Evidence isn’t always recognized, or therefore recorded when an event occurs. It’s definitely a little tougher to produce than astute and ideally lengthy real-time observation. And does it really matter anyway – given AI (artificial Intelligence), FX (short for ‘effects’), SFX (physical special effects) and VSF (visual special effects) and increasingly highly sophisticated graphic generation? It is so doubtable, and few have the time or other resources to vet it well. So, it often just becomes fodder for more distraction. No evidence ever really seems good enough for anyone. And, I get that. It should be very rigorously vetted – but hey folks, there is evidence spanning thousands of years – still not good enough. So… k. While good to have, it’s not really my priority. Especially given the challenging nature and observational sacrifice in attempting to capture it efficiently and do so sufficiently.

Technology too – very highly suspect. How much observation of unusual phenomena, to include craft, is automatically attributed to ‘alien tech’ when it is actually manufactured by humans as a reverse-engineered reproduction vehicle? How deep in the dark ages are we, still?

But… if disclosure theory and to-date evidence surrounding legacy black programs, budgets, tech and objectives are be believed, others among us may have long been in possession of extremely sophisticated technology – and I’m not talking just possession of exotic-nonhuman intelligences (living here or elsewhere) and their technologies. I’m talking about our own peeps. Just, ya know, hoggin’ everything, implementing its full-use in our skies, underwater, etc… even right alongside exotic-intelligences toward whatever ultimate, unaccountable ends. And allthe rest of us… 8-billion of us clueless.

By the way, overly-encouraged, narrowly framed skepticism when there may really be evidence or credible firsthand testimony from insiders on super-secret legacy programs is causing all kinds of distraction. Keeping agenda backed up at the on-ramp.

As has always served the purpose of deception: Truths, half truths and lies can all nestle together in the bottom of the bag, thoroughly confusing its contents.

When they want to be seen, exotic-NHI will be seen.

Covert ops? Them too… eventually.

Maybe.

“Age of Disclosure” My Top Three Observations…

1) Observed: Statements were proffered by top-tier ‘insiders’.

1) Developing Conclusion: So… sigh. That only makes me more skeptical.

2) Observed: Some of them are or were intelligence operatives… you know… in the know, deep covert secret program kind of peeps.

2) Developing Conclusion: Well, that helps with credibility (eye roll).

3) Observation: And, they’re all mostly dudes.

3) Developing Conclusion: With a straight-up, not even trying to conceal it… have to demonstrate it in the presence of other dudes likely intrinsically vying for top dudeness… assertion of territorial dominance of ‘this fencepost, that post, and/or that one… way the heck over there. Mine. Or gonna be mine. Or maybe ours, if you’re in’. Just a lot of mine-ness, or hierarchy-observed allied bro-ness toward what appears to be securing an objective, a direction, an approach and a narrative advanced by a collection of now-trusted spokespersons - all directed at a particular audience. A few dudes may have conveyed similar vibes more genteelly, confidently, or carefully than others – and truly some, maybe all, may be very sincere in their perception and perspective. But, prevailing: an overall heavy emphasis on competition, aggression and control. Generalities at play and gender bias aside, dudes kind of being dudes, I guess. A few did seem to place genuine emphasis on more of the right things. You probably caught that too if you hadn’t already moved on. Sincerity, made currency?

Take away: With supposed long-standing legacy programs in place and close to a hundred years of secret manipulation of craft and biologics…? How much do they even know about NHI? I would think quite a bit. But maybe not. C’mon… me thinks competition, aggression and control should not be the sole focus, here.

Defense? Yes. Safety of flight for military and passenger craft? Absolutely. No question. But it seems if genuine UAP/NHI-initiated collision were intended or common, a lot of craft would have already been collected, right? Right off the ground – whoop, there went another one... go get it. No need for purported scalar weapons or psionics to bring them in and down.

I’m all about defense. I’m continually embroiled in defending against aggressive posturing and outright hostility – it just seems to be a theme. And an exhausting one at that. A nation must have strong defensive capabilities (emphasis added: d..e..f..e..n..s..e).

Which, by the way, can unaccountably flip immediately to offense.

And, yes – just as Dr. Steven Greer has often noted, that would likely produce an extinction level event for humanity. Just a broad sweep, ‘done with all you f------’ kind of deal. But I don’t know. The NHI I hang out with, I don’t think that’s their schtick. At all. These are the really awesome entities. Truly full of love. So please don’t target them and include them in some kind of ill-conceived dragnet. Is that the exit plan for humanity? Cooked up and unbeknownst to all us regular non-spook monkey peeps. We’re better than that. Bigger than that. More capable of lift than that.

If that is the plan, how could humanity get so far astray and slide sideways?

Here’s how: Human instinct without notice, scrutiny or restraint. Secrecy and a lack of accountability can absolutely produce that. A kind of seething sense of superiority over all life, an effort to emulate ultimate authority - as in playing ‘God’.

And I kind of know what that looks like: A personal aside

Look, I don’t know anything about the inner workings of this mess, nor do I want to. As noted in my previous piece, I’ve lived with similar assumptions, manipulations and deceptions from my own father - an ace international spook and INTERPOL investigator. He constantly employed psyops to control and manipulate his own family (Meet the Parents style). Most of that tendency arising from latent and - not indulgent, but very real and justified professional wariness… but also having left his childhood home at six and finally for keeps at twelve (i.e. haunting insecurities from a cold and indifferent family, his grandmother attempting to poison him before he jumped on a watermelon truck and headed for Alaska).

John Lear, lightly comes to mind. Both were pilots, charismatic, worked for the ‘Company’ (Agency), flew covert missions. Wealthy, family tensions…

A note on my Dad: you may see periodic references to him as I release the leading edge of these articles, because he offers important early context on the all-too-common and entrained mindset of a spook and the effect it produced on my own thinking (let alone and likely, theirs). Context. Context is always the thing. And that’s pretty important here in this arena. Good gravy, this whole UAP/NHI thing (while, yes - real) is also simultaneous SpookWorld if there ever was one.

I’ve said before and will say again, let them have their thing. Only spooks can deal with other spooks relatively effectively. I respect that. A ‘spy vs. spy’ arena can be quite consuming. Which can unfortunately also separate practitioners from broader realities outside their contrived and controlled world of deep deception. And they have to try to maintain that distant connectivity while staying alive. Paranoid anyone? What is a noid anyway? Cause there often ain’t no ‘para’ about it. Just like ‘paranormal’, incidentally. Dad always said, you really don’t want to be in the business too long. He, too, began to see the distortion, the corruption, the unaccountable cover and wanted out.

Many of these covert folks – at least in the old days - are combat veterans – my Dad no exception. Viet Nam Recon Marine. Then up through the civilian law enforcement ranks - local, state, federal. He was a white hat. Maybe predictably, a couple of his fellow Companymen set him up and tried to take him out.

They called for a meet-up in an alley one night at around one in the morning; so he appeared and waited. That’s when two of them pulled their vehicles around either end of the narrow passage, blocking him in. Then they opened fire.

He knew the setup was coming; and a few days prior he had staked out an abandoned building adjacent to the alley where he knew the ambush was likely to occur. There, near a dumpster, he jimmied a street-level window leaving it barely ajar. That night, he waited near the dumpster, appearing as a wayward wino while - as planned - casually convening in the area.

When the agents pinned him in then leapt out firing into the shadows, he’d already slipped inside the building and had quickly traced his path out again.

He then covertly collected his own dossier and disappeared into the mountains.

In the days following the ambush, I had asked him, “Do you think they’ll find you?” His chilling reply: “They’ll always know where I am.”

And, yup… he did as much work up there, three years in the mountainous boonies of Colorado, as he ever did in Texas: UAP/NHI (that probably saved my life) yes, the UAP were there all three years. Men in Black? Yup. But they could’ve been FBI, as it was almost fifty years ago and back then, FBI always wore the Men in Black wrappers and toppers. Trafficking, drug busts, lost aircraft, insurance fraud, rescue and recovery. His story was truly an epic one – and not without domestic damage. Maybe I’ll tell more of that later.

Btw, Lazar? I’ve believed him from the first moments of his initial interview with George Knapp. But, I gotta say, that ‘screened’ identity wasn’t hiding anything. Those glasses? One location? Presumably a tiny percentile of possibles? C’mon.

Back to others playing God

So how again could all this out-of-sight out-of-mind, slight-of-hand, internal, sequestered subterfuge go awry? All the classic culprits of what might have at one time been a relatively innocent approach: Haste, assumption, posturing, arrogance, preeminent focus on self-service, greed, corruption… and a pretty clouded sense of control and immunity.

Offensive action with exotic-NHI is not a good plan, though. Not a good plan. Just my opinion, if my emerging understanding of the phenomena is to be believed. And it can be. It’s an honest and fairly thorough account, even if it’s still evolving in its understanding and analysis.

Humanity, closely akin to chimpanzees, may be slow to come to the aid of an innocent, and quick to rush in and seize any spoils for themselves; but I strongly, strongly believe that at least some NHI are not so inclined.

Neither is all of humanity.

Right now, this narrative is driven primarily by men. Everywhere we look, across all media formats - in interviews, documentaries… we see and absorb the perspectives of mostly men. Unfortunately a good many (though certainly not all) of those perspectives seem to coalesce around competition, defense, and posturing toward attempts at subject matter credibility among other men through activities far beneath the stature of this subject and its potential for or against life on Earth.

Activities like joyfully and jokingly ‘poking the bear’; firing rockets to attract and irritate or even potentially harm; waving lasers across open skies with no idea what occupies such space; baiting (with living innocent animals, like cattle or lamas) toward intended capture of biologics, documented effect of harms and/or superior technological gain, incidental or pursued, militaristic or academic.

It’s pretty pathetic on the whole. I watch it to see how far it will go unchecked, and any applied supposed logic behind it. It’s anthropology in the Anthropocene.

I’m not being sexist here, but this is where the hormonal differences and resultant instinctual, preceptive and behavioral tendencies among men and women really need to be recognized. The absence of women in this arena is glaring, and will be consequential to outcome.

Situational awareness, evolving contact protocol, education and enlightenment, diplomacy, inclusion… that’s probably a better tack. But hey, I don’t know what apparently a lot of others do know. I just hope no one is conveniently assuming. Let alone advancing false narratives toward a profiteering objective, as many insiders have long claimed.

The long-touted claim that NHI are “here” with nefarious intent

Well, that claim certainly keeps the fuses lit.

Even if there is/are faction(s) of NHI dirtbags (and I have seen compelling evidence of that possibility, though it’s also possible the entities were not of the same general classification, and not easily distinguished) well, an enlightened sort might consider that:

1) We’re being protected from them by benevolent NHI – which, I’m absolutely confident I’ve seen in action a couple of years ago with the craft, dark entity and cyclonic storm.

That event occurred within six-mile (perimeter) triangulation of three of my own sightings (a large orb; large square or diamond shaped craft(s) - noted as ‘ascending tiles’; and, a small oval craft) as well as the appearance of first and last NHI messages regarding Luna’s September US Congressional hearing (referenced in the previous article):

[Internal Link “Disclosure is Over. Accountability is On.” https://lbracken.substack.com/p/disclosure-is-over-accountability?r=l7zy8 ].

And, I’ve seen that kind of ‘para’ normal protectionism exhibited elsewhere, also. Including in my own home. Maybe a different breed of NHI though, spirit types perhaps. Not sure who rushed in, but the whole physical landscape was rearranged in under thirty seconds. I’ve seen physical objects move – it’s fairly common actually. Usually a gifted kind and loving gesture. Protective.

But one instance was malevolent, an angry frustrated spirit-person. So that stuffis real, at least in my world – regardless of where I am. I think it’s elsewhere also. I know guardian angels to be a real thing. And, unsettled spirits, also.

We live in a great mystery of what is, how it is, how it changes or challenges our perceptions and why. We share space. There’s uncertainty. That’s okay. We’re figuring it out, together. Align with benevolent values. Believe in good and protective forces. Pray for the safety and care of all benevolent and innocent life on this planet. Love, peace, faith – that stuff is our best stuff, and it is solid.

Dr. Steven Greer’s got some relative and relevant thoughts on that here…

2) A thought experiment: If we’re not protected from dirtbag NHI by benevolent NHI, then the dirtbags probably would have taken humanity out by now. Right? I mean, doesn’t that seem logical, at least? I think it’s complicated to be sure. And, I cannot say even after immersive empirical study that NHI is related to UAP; but, I’m generally confident that it is, as it has been demonstrated in a conscientious, progressive and carefully presented sequence… concurrent with UAP and common to the demonstrated pattern of what appear to be authentic exotic-NHI entities.

3) Last point of open speculation on black programs and the existence of UAP, e-NHI, craft, reverse engineering, interstellar partnerships and deals made: Dim probabilities… mistakes made… intractable entanglement… last resort… God literally only knows where this started and where it’s headed. If that’s the case, insiders, get help. Any good therapist would urge that. Spare an already struggling world on the brink of ecological and geopolitical collapse.

When one looks at this made mess, and who/what systems may have founded it, I can understand why we keep seeing a bunch of intel types repeating themselves across the decades. And, despite some others’ musings that said intel types have negotiated… negotiated?... what to say, when, and to whom… My reply would be “Do you think it really matters, Eddie?” (Clark Griswold “Christmas Vacation”, 1989). Whatever folks need to tell themselves, or others. But, hey, maybe. Maybe so. Since it’s generally considered better to try to work with the IC (Intelligence Community) than against it, even if the latest re-iteration of disclosure seems to betray an overly controlled slow roll toward an undisclosed shadowy objective, then maybe that’s why we keep hearing it, seeing it. Again, this is the IC’s thing… they’re all trying to deal with it in their way.

SCIFy, SCIFless, full on rogue – if the truth is messy, unsettling and nonetheless omnipresent, the deceit to cover it must be as deep and weird as the mythical Mel’s Hole.

Till next time, space traveler.
