Dr. Phil on UFO files: 'There has been a massive cover-up' | Reality Check
In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with Dr. Phil McGraw, the psychologist and television host the White House invited to review the latest tranche of UFO files before it reached the public. Dr. Phil explains why an administration weighing disclosure went looking for a trusted voice rather than an astrophysicist, and what changed his mind once he started reading the government's own words: from Lt. General Nathan Twining's 1947 assessment that the phenomenon was something real and not visionary, to the 1949 classified conference at Los Alamos convened over sightings above America's nuclear weapons sites, to the CIA's Robertson Panel strategy of publicizing cases already debunked and saying nothing about the ones that weren't, to the JANAP directives that put military and commercial pilots under threat of prison, heavy fines and the Espionage Act for describing what they saw.He tells Coulthart the imagery released so far is intentionally grainy, that far better gun camera video and radar tracks exist and that Reps. Tim Burchett and Anna Paulina Luna are helping him press for their release. Drawing on close to 50 years of sitting with people through the worst losses a person can absorb, Dr. Phil rejects the argument that Americans are too fragile to be told, calling it a patronizing view, while arguing the government owes real support to the people who will struggle with it. Two things he says he will state with confidence to the American public: There has been a huge cover-up and there are things in our atmosphere we cannot explain and did not build. #DrPhil #UAP #UFOFilesCREDITSHost: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan MedickSegment Producer: Christine JenkinsonAssociate Producer: Will TomasiResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: Kanyon LyonsOn "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.

The conversation opens with Lue Elizondo's remarks on lunar anomalies, then works outward to the Phobos 2 spacecraft and the object NASA's own mission literature once described as a monolith along with the reason SETI took that object seriously enough to study.From there, Max walks Ross through the imagery that has drawn the most attention on Mars, from the so-called glass worm to the rectilinear formations near the Atlantis basin, applying the same fractal analysis that NASA and the Department of Defense use to separate natural terrain from engineered structures. Grounding the discussion in Carl Sagan's own standards for searching for evidence of past life, Max makes the case that some of these features deserve to be treated as genuine open questions rather than tricks of light and shadow. Also featured in this episode is the work of Jean Ward, Independent Mars Researcher, a colleague of Dr. Derakhshani's whose work can be found at https://www.youtube.com/jeanward and https://megalithicmars.com/CREDITSHost: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan OuradaSegment Producer: Christine JenkinsonAssociate Producer: Will TomasiResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: Anthony DiasioOn "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.

South American adventure: Ross Coulthart explores Rapa Nui, aka Easter Island | Reality Check
Ross Coulthart explores an ancient alien mystery, gaining access to never-before-seen mummies that some researchers say could hold the key to the UFO question. Is it too good to be true, or a crucial next step toward disclosure? In this week’s episode, we find Ross at the ancient site of Rapa Nui, also known as Easter Island. The Moai statues are some of the most impressive examples of early engineering, but that also leaves many unanswered questions. How did they move the 70-ton statues, what was their purpose and what happened to the people on Rapa Nui?#RapaNui #EasterIsland #MoaiCREDITS:Host: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan OuradaSegment Producer: Christine JenkinsonAssociate Producer: Will TomasiEditor: Anthony DiasioOn "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.

Ross Coulthart breaks silence on Lue Elizondo backlash: 'I was surprised' | Reality Check

Coulthart tackles questions about the Elizondo controversy and why whistleblowers remain silent despite NDAs, Michael Shermer's controversial appointment to the White House UAP Science Advisory Council and whether nonhuman intelligence shows any interest in human art, music and culture. #LueElizondo #ChrisCuomo #RossCoulthartCREDITS:Host: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan MedickSegment Producer: Christine Jenkinson, Will TomasiResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: Anthony DiasioOn "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.

Rep. Eric Burlison on UAP material he saw inside SCIF and files he's forcing open | Reality Check
In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with Rep. Eric Burlison, the Missouri Republican and UAP Caucus member who has become one of the most active voices in Congress pressing the federal government to come clean on the phenomenon. Burlison describes the material he was shown inside an SCIF, footage and imagery that remain closed to the public, and recounts watching plasma-like orbs move with an intelligence and instantaneous acceleration the intelligence community itself cannot explain but speculate to be the same objects FBI field agents reported seeing when they responded to sightings at residential locations and a western military facility last December.The conversation turns to the machinery of secrecy, with Burlison arguing the Manhattan Project taught the government how to bury a program inside federally funded research centers, and detailing the interrogatories he has sent to MITRE, MIT Lincoln Laboratory, the CIA and the FBI, including a reel-to-reel recording of a U.S. Air Force general questioning MIT scientists about the 1952 Washington flyover that Lincoln Laboratory is now in the process of declassifying. Coulthart and Burlison weigh whether an 82-year-old secret can hold, why declassification never happens on its own and what it would mean for a congressman of deep faith to confront the ontological shock of disclosure. Burlison does not hedge on the stakes, telling Ross that revealing what is behind this would be the greatest revelation since Jesus Christ and offering his read on whether the Trump White House intends to deliver it.#UAPCaucus #UAP #disclosureCREDITS:Host: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan OuradaSegment Producer: Christine JenkinsonAssociate Producer: Will TomasiResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: Kanyon LyonsOn "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.

Ross Coulthart in the US Capitol: The disclosure lawmakers | Reality Check
As lawmakers and whistleblowers continue a push for transparency on UFOs, the Disclosure Forum brought advocates together in a daylong session. The forum featured panel discussions on issues around UAPs, including the congressional push for transparency, national security implications and the potential effect of sightings on the economy and religious belief. In this week's episode, Ross Coulthart joins from Washington, D.C., where he attended the conference and had an opportunity to speak with lawmakers about ongoing disclosure efforts and the national security state's attempts to silence whistleblowers. Ross speaks with Reps. Anna Paulina Luna, André Carson and Eric Burlison, as well as Sen.

The impact of disclosure: John Priestland, Dr. Martin Abbas on psychology of contact | Reality Check
In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with John Priestland and Dr. Martin Abbas of uNHIdden, the U.K. and U.S. foundation behind the first systematic public health framework for a disclosure event. Their report, "Preparing for Disclosure: A Public Health Framework for Paradigm-shifting Revelations," was published in June 2026. You can read it in full here:https://www.unhidden.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/uNHIdden-Preparedness-Plan-Final-1.pdfThe premise is almost entirely unexamined. Governments plan for pandemics, natural disasters and mass-casualty events, but nothing in any national framework prepares ordinary people for the psychological and social fallout of learning that humanity is not alone. UNHIdden takes no position on whether confirmatory information sits inside a classified program. Their case rests on the precautionary principle: the potential scale of the public response is large, the preparedness gap is real and the cost of preparing for an event that may never come is modest next to the cost of being unprepared. The report borrows tools from pandemic preparedness, disaster mental health and crisis communication.Ross and his guests work through that framework. They define ontological shock, the disorientation a person feels when the ground assumptions of their reality give way, and trace why the mental health toll of a societal trauma so often outlasts the physical one. The conversation covers the institutional history that built the stigma, including the Robertson Panel and the decision to make ridicule a matter of policy and the lasting damage institutional betrayal does once a public learns it was misled. Dr. Abbas, a practicing GP, describes what it is like to sit across from an experiencer whose first words are almost always a version of "I'm not crazy, but I know you'll think I am."The two men map the high-risk groups who could struggle most, from committed skeptics and the religiously devout to experiencers and the already vulnerable, and explain the population strategy at the center of the plan, drawn from epidemiologist Geoffrey Rose, that lifting whole-society resilience even slightly does more aggregate good than concentrating on the most severely affected. Ross presses them on the hardest scenarios, a craft down in Hyde Park, the question of religious confrontation and whether a government still managing a half-truth does more harm than the full truth would. The episode closes on consciousness, near-death research and the possibility that simply talking about all of this openly, now, is the gentlest way to prepare.#uNHIdden #disclosure #psychologyCREDITSHost: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan MedickSegment Producer: Christine JenkinsonAssociate Producer: Will TomasiResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: John NockOn "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.

Ross Coulthart Q&A: Amnesty protections, dark side of moon and disclosure stalled? | Reality Check
Ross Coulthart explores mysterious untold stories using a fact-based approach to address various topics, from unidentified aerial phenomena to other mysteries that often go unreported. Now, he is turning to viewers, answering their pressing questions each week. In this week's episode, Coulthart breaks down the White House's new UAP Governance Board, warning it could become another "toothless tiger" like Project Blue Book, lacking subpoena power and reliant on the Pentagon's goodwill. He also makes the case for whistleblower amnesty, drawing on his experience covering South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission to argue why immunity may be the only realistic path to real disclosure. Plus, Coulthart digs into newly surfaced Apollo 16 audio describing unexplained gravity and gamma-ray anomalies near the dark side of the moon.Watch Unreported with Meagan Medick here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6PrA6lo8rJKtTsTq9eAtpNdZzuyST-R-#UAP #GovernanceBoard #WhiteHouseCREDITS:Host: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan MedickSegment Producer: Christine JenkinsonAssociate Producer: Will TomasiResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: Sarah JacksonOn "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.

Watergate, the JFK assassination and a UFO secret at the center of it all | Reality Check
Jonathan Caplan KC, a veteran British barrister and King’s Counsel, joins Ross Coulthart this week for "Reality Check" to discuss Caplan's new book Not For Disclosure, the culmination of 50 years investigating the UAP mystery. Applying the same evidentiary standards he used in court, Caplan explains why he believes the phenomenon deserves serious attention.Ross asks what Britain may quietly know about UAPs, which UK cases are most credible, and what to make of persistent claims involving British special forces and crash retrievals. The conversation also explores Prince Philip’s interest in UFOs, reports of UFO-curious British nobility, and the mysterious figure Air Marshal Sir Peter Horsley called “Mr. Janus.”A major focus is the controversial Majestic 12 documents. Caplan explains why he considers key papers authentic, addresses claims they were forged, and examines documents tied to Timothy Cooper, Ryan Wood, White Sands, Richard Drain, and the 1953 effort to debunk the subject.The discussion then turns to allegations involving President John F. Kennedy, Howard Hunt, Watergate, and the so-called Lancer document.
