Bryan Sentes Interview - A Different Perspective

It's good to have Kevin Randle back again with interviews of interesting ufological figures, and Quebec English prof and poet Bryan Sentes is something of a "quiet riot." The dialogue begins with Sentes' qualms about the first season of the tv series Project Blue Book featuring Sentes' intriguing characterization of the show as a failure both of imagination and nerve. The conversation slides into the 1896-7 airship wave in the U.S., with observations about how so much of that extremely controversial flap presaged more modern "waves," and what that might mean. Sentes also literally "deconstructs," from his different perspective, certain themes in each era, and remarks about the unfortunate anthropocentrism inherent in most of the musings about ET life elsewhere in the cosmos. Kevin also has an interview with Nick Pope, formerly the United Kingdom's Ministry of Defence's UFO guy. Kevin and Nick discuss the similarities between the remit Nick had and the job of Project Blue Book, and the considerable differences the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program had from both. Pope also pontificates about the then-Soviet UFO approach, the goofy nomenclature being used to signify "unknowns," and the science fiction "albatross" that hangs around UFO researchers who also write fiction.
