The Disclosure Forum, A UFO Czar & Controlled Disclosure | Doomer Friday

June 29, 2026

AI Summary

5 min read

The Disclosure Forum, held in the historic Kennedy Caucus Room, was meant to be a serious event on UAP transparency, but the panelists on this episode of That UFO Podcast found it confusing and frustrating. The event, organized by the Disclosure Foundation, featured lawmakers, scientists, and whistleblowers, but the hosts felt it lacked a clear purpose. It mixed an awards ceremony they found cringey with serious policy discussions, and the audio problems didn't help. The core problem, as they saw it, was that the event didn't know what it wanted to be—a high-end conference or a grassroots gathering—and ended up falling in the middle. More importantly, it raised the question of whether the disclosure process itself is being controlled by the same people who have kept the secret for decades, and whether the public is being set up for a managed, partial release of information rather than the full truth.

Show Notes

Andy joins the Doomer Friday crew for a wide-ranging discussion on the Disclosure Forum, the reaction to the event, the role of new UFO organisations, and whether the public is being prepared for genuine disclosure or a heavily managed version of it.

We get into the tone of the Forum, the awards, the lack of truly new information, and the bigger question of what these events are actually trying to achieve. The conversation also turns to whistleblowers like Matthew Brown and Dylan Borland, possible executive action around protections, the rumours of a UFO “czar”, and whether any future disclosure process will prioritise truth, accountability, or control.

This one goes deep into amnesty, historical crimes, classified reality, national security, the threat narrative, global disclosure, and whether the world would actually change if the truth finally came out.

A huge thanks to the Doomer Friday team for having me back on.
