John Greenewald: The Black Vault, AATIP, and Behavioral Modification

On episode 86 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Ryan is joined by John Greenewald, the creator and moderator of The Black Vault. The Black Vault is the largest privately run online repository of declassified government documents anywhere in the world. With more than 2 Million pages of documents to read, on nearly every government secret imaginable, The Black Vault is known worldwide for getting down to the truth... and nothing but. Every document in its archive was obtained through the Freedom of Information Act Begun in 1996, at the age of 15, John Greenewald, Jr., began hammering the U.S. Government with FOIA requests to obtain information. The Black Vault is the result of that near two-decade effort. And today, we talk about how it all began, the most important documents he came across pertaining to UFOs, and then we do a deep dive into AATIP, the supposed Secret Pentagon UFO Program, and the critical observations John has come across in relation to the head of the program, Luis Elizondo. We wrap things up talking about a stunning amount of never-before-seen documents pertaining to the CIA's involvement in a Behavioral Modification program that involved mind control and other MK ULTRA-like experiments. Guest Bio: In 1996, John Greenewald, Jr. began researching the secret inner workings of the U.S. Government at the young age of fifteen.
