Longtime British UFO researcher, author and publisher Philip Mantle joins Martin Willis for a fascinating look back at more than four decades of UFO investigation—and the evidence that may still be sitting undiscovered in filing cabinets, attics and forgotten archives. Philip discusses his expansive retrospective, UFO REFLECTIONS, including the remarkable videotaped testimony of former Deputy Sheriff Charles Forgus, who claimed that he witnessed the recovery operation at Roswell in 1947. The conversation also explores: • The infamous Alien Autopsy film and how Philip helped expose the truth behind it • The 1980 Normanton, England, UFO landing reportedly witnessed by a mother and several children • How two of those children, now adults, were found decades later and reaffirmed the account • New witnesses and previously unseen recordings connected to the 1973 Pascagoula encounter • The secretly recorded conversation between Calvin Parker and Charles Hickson • Philip’s friendship with Calvin Parker and his efforts to preserve Calvin’s story • How forgotten film, audio and online comments can uncover important new witnesses • The growing problem of AI-generated UFO stories being presented as authentic evidence Philip Mantle is a former Director of Investigations for the British UFO Research Association and the founder of Flying Disk Press. Throughout his career, he has investigated celebrated cases, exposed major hoaxes and preserved testimony that might otherwise have disappeared.
