This
week I reached out to Peter Robbins to talk about his experiences in the world
of the UFO. Yes, I sort of asked the lame question about how he got started but
only because I wasn’t sure how it had happened. That took us into the world of
alien abduction, a place that I hadn’t wanted to visit. But Peter had worked
for a long time with Budd Hopkins, was familiar with the abduction phenomenon,
and had a personal experience with abduction that I thought was interesting.
You can listen to the program here:
For
those who remember, Carol Rainey visited the program about a year ago. She is a
documentary producer who was married to Budd Hopkins for ten years. Her take on
this was somewhat different. For those who missed that program, you can listen
to it here:
There
were a number of topics discussed with Carol that concern the research by Budd
into all of this. You can find that article, with those links here:
We
spent the last part of the program taking about Rendleshaw Forest and the
trouble with Peter’s book (written with Larry Warren). Peter was quite candid
in what he said about it, and that there were things in the book that he now
knows were not true. For more information see:
And
to get to the other side of the road:
I
have posted the information that Peter provided to clarify some of the issues
in his book with Warren. They are lengthy posts and in the second part, the
documents did not reproduce properly. They will be missing. They follow this post.

week’s guest: Don Schmitt
Topic:
Roswell UFO festival/ Roswell UFO case/ MUFON.
I read the letters and somewhat agree with Gary Hazeltine. I certainly appears that Robbins is in damage control mode by pitching his partnership with Warren. All of the years that Halt (and others) had been screaming foul and Robbins never took the opportunity to do a little extra digging? Hmmmm, doesn't sound right to me.
ReplyDeleteKevin, on another topic. Has anyone mentioned any issues with the search tool associated with your blog? It appears to not be working correctly for me. It is not finding a number of topics that I know exist.
John -
ReplyDeleteI have had no trouble with the search engine on the blog. I seem to be able to find what I need.
Think Peter explained the situation on the radio show. We discussed how we all can be swept up in a story told by someone who seems to have the proper credentials. Warren was at the base at the time of the events and it was he who originally told the story to Barry Greenwood. Without Warren, we might not have learned of the sighting... There was no reason, originally, to believe Warren had injected himself into the story. It was only after years of research that the truth about Warren came out. It's to Peter's credit that he explained the situation as he did.
