Speaker 1 (00:00):
In radio, they always tell us one thought per break.
So why would I put an NFL star with a
YA author or a movie star with a doctor who
says I've cured cancer? Ero dot net, a R r
Oe dot net, seventeen different podcasts and subjects to enhance
your life. Thank you so much for being a part
of mine. Dan, How are you doing today?

Speaker 2 (00:22):
Good?

Speaker 3 (00:22):
Good morning? Thank you for having me, dude.

Speaker 1 (00:24):
I'll tell you what. I am so excited about what
you and your community are doing because we are living
in an age where, my god, one day we're going
to cross that line, and you are getting us there
closer and closer with the age of disclosure. Keep it
in the conversation.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
Thank you man.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
What is that like for you? Because I'm sure you
have hit a wall of naysayers and there's people on
the sidelines going, Dan, Dan, what are you doing?

Speaker 2 (00:49):
Dude? Look, there's a lot of people out there that
wish this movie didn't exist. For a lot of people
put decades of time into covering this up and keeping
all this information from the public.

Speaker 3 (01:01):
So this film breaks through all that.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
This film makes the public aware of a very real
situation that impacts us. All makes the public aware of
fundamental facts like we are not alone in the universe.
The existence of non human intelligent life has been covered
up by elements of the US government for eighty years,
and this movie makes it very clear. These people interviewed
are not random, wacky people. It's thirty four very high

(01:25):
level military, government and intelligence officials. It ranges from our
Secretary of State to sitting senators from both sides of
the aisles, to Director of National Intelligence, a former Secretary
of Defense, high level intelligence officials, the people who ran
the classified government UAP programs, Navy fighter pilots, air Force
security guards, so we trusted guarding nuclear weapons. Some of

(01:48):
the most trusted people in our nation break their silence
and all collectively share this truth. And these are people
don't have anything else in common. They're not all politically aligned,
they're not ideal logically aligned, but they're all bravely stepping
up to tell the public what they legally can about
this situation. Well.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
See, that's what I like about the Age of Disclosure,
is that you're you're proving to us all that this
is not just what because in past movies and things
like that, it was always the military or was a
government official. I mean you you are taking us into
that area where it's real, honest to god people that
could be our dang neighbors.

Speaker 3 (02:22):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
I mean that's one of the one of the one
of the wild thoughts I think the average person will
have when they watch this and you realize that there's
this massive secret effort going on behind the scenes with
a lot of people involved in it.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
And the people involved in it go home to their
families like everybody else and like.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
But my question is, why does it have to be
a secret? Why does it have to be that that
knowledge that's hidden away inside boxes and it's hard for
us to get in there. But we thank god we
have you because you're you're somehow penetrating it.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
Yeah, thank you. Look, there's a lot of there's a
lot of.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Things that have driven the secrecy, and when people watch
the movie they'll learn about all of it. But one
thing is at the beginning of this, back in the forties,
when the US, when elements of the US government and
military realized this was real, they thought the.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
Public couldn't handle it. They thought that it was too
much for the public.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
They thought the average person would lose their mind if
they learned the reality of this, But I think the
American public and all humanity can handle the truth and
at the very least deserve to know the base facts.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
That's what the people in my film believe as well.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
One of the things that you're putting focus on here,
which I'm very inspired by, and that is the fact
that you're telling people this is not about the past.
It's about the future of humanity. I don't think I've
heard anybody ever put it that way before, because it's
always been this is what we did in nineteen forty five,
this is what we did here. No, you're all about
the future, dude.

Speaker 3 (03:52):
Yeah, No, it's an urgent situation.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
I mean, it's made very clear by every single person
in the film, from our Secretary of State who's also
a notional security advisor, to senior leaders in government right now.
They make it very clear that the United States is
involved in a secret Cold War race with avisarial nations
like China and Russia to get this technology UAP technology,

(04:17):
technology of non human origin, and reverse engineer it to
make their own technology. And whoever wins that race will
be the leader of the planet for the next hundred years.
And the same way that when we won the atomic
race in the forties, we became the leaders for the
next hundred years.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
Please do not move. There's more with Dan Ferrek coming
up next. The name of the documentary The Age of
Disclosure now in theaters. Dan Ferrera checks back in the focus.
Right now, it seems like everybody wants to hurry up
and get up to Mars. They want to get up
to the moon. They want to put missiles up in
space to protect the planet. I can't help but sit
there and think of people like yourself, going, wait a second,

(04:56):
in all the research that I'm doing, I don't want
to anger the aliens ut there that could be saying,
you're not putting that on our property.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Yeah, I mean, look, one of the big one of
the big reveals in the film is that there is
a concern amongst people who are aware of the truth
that humanity is on a trajectory where we are quickly
becoming a problem for more advanced non human intelligent life.

(05:25):
In the film, they talk about how, let's be honest,
we are a violent species. You know, we are still
threatening nuclear war to each other. Eighty years after an
atomic bomb was dropped on Japan. You know, we're still
threatening to invade, and we are actually invading sovereign nations
eighty years after World War Two. Like, if you take
a step back and you look at humanity, we're kind

(05:47):
of a hot mess.

Speaker 3 (05:48):
We're and we're violent, and we're dangerous.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
And if you were more advanced species that didn't have
to deal with us for you know, thousands of years,
and now all of a sudden, you've seen us advanced
technologically to the point where we're you know.

Speaker 3 (06:02):
Contending with you.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
You know, it's safe to assume you would be we
humanity would be perceived as a problem.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
And so there's a general concern that.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
We are sort of on a on on on a
fast track to a crossroad, and we've really got to
get our act together.

Speaker 3 (06:21):
And it's also driving the desire for all.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
These people to educate the public before something bad happens.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
So is this your way of saying that if if
life was Star Trek, we're the bad guys that that
that h William Shatner would be looking at us going,
what are you guys doing? Can't we just get along here?

Speaker 2 (06:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (06:40):
I think I think bad guys. It's not it's not
bad guys. Is the right word.

Speaker 2 (06:43):
It's more like we're we're we're we're species with so
much potential. There's there's so much unique, so many unique
qualities for humanity, but we also have a tendency to
be violent, and we're no longer we can no longer
pretend like that's not impacting our role in the universe.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
The fact that you're putting this inside movie theaters, You've
got my attention on this because that's where you have
my attention. I don't have my smartphone. I'm not sitting
there talking with people around me. This is a conversation
between what you've created and what's being generated inside my
imagination and interpretation. I think that was a brilliant move, dude,
because I can't hit pause.

Speaker 3 (07:21):
Thank you, man, No, I appreciate it.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
Yeah, I'm really really proud to have this in theaters
in New York, Los Angeles, and DC. At the same time,
if you can't get to one of those cities, you
can watch it on Prime video. You can purchase it
or rent it all over the world, subtitles in every
single language. Every single person.

Speaker 3 (07:39):
In the world can watch this movie one way or
the other this weekend.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
But yeah, I would love for people in DC, New York,
in LA to go see it in theaters. I'm going
to be going to see it in the theater this weekend.
There's nothing like a movie theater experience.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
The movie we're talking about in the documentary we're talking
about is the Age of Disclosure. And I'm sure somewhere
along the line and all these conversations you're having today,
somebody else is going to bring this up. But if
I step on your toes, let me know. If we
can't believe that aliens exist in this universe, how would
we ever believe of a second coming of a spiritual leader?
How do you know we're not going to put that
person in a secret place and we'll never know?

Speaker 3 (08:13):
Too far? Too far, you know. I mean, look, in general,
I just think.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
People have a hard time wrapping their heads around things
they have personally experienced. But that's that's something we've got
to break past because things exist outside of, you know,
our understanding, and history has proven that time and time again.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
It's really interesting that we're talking about this today because
I was doing some heavy duty research for an iHeartRadio
podcast today and it was based on half truth and
full truth. And the thing is is that I feel
like that up until this movie, we were only getting
half truth. And here comes Dan who's saying, look, here
is the full story. We are not here to entertain you,
We're here to inform you.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
I mean. I didn't make this movie, this movie, this
documentary for entertainment purposes, and I didn't make it to
debate what these people are saying or to try to
convince anyone watching it of anything. I just created a
platform to give these people a comfortable place to share
their truth.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
And break their silence.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
They had not had that, they had not had an
opportunity that they felt comfortable speaking up, and no one
wanted to know. These interview subjects wanted to be out
on a limb on their own saying these extraordinary things
and become subject to ridicule or to the pushback from
those who have covered it up. But the idea of
being arm in arm with thirty four very high level
of military governmental officials in a film made by a

(09:43):
filmmaker who really understood the situation and knew how serious
it was and wasn't going to mock them or intercut
them with some knucklehead or make them look silly. That
was appealing to them, and they all leaned into it,
and this was this is the only way these truths
could have come out, and these people could have felt
comfortable to speaking up.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
God, I love your drive where you are when it
comes to everything that's taking place and when people finally
start believing your truth because of the age of disclosure.
When you sit down to see a sunset, will it
be on the beaches of Key West, will it be
in Carmel in California? Or are you going out to
Hawaii to say I told you I was listening. Thank
you for giving me the energy, mister Universe.

Speaker 3 (10:17):
You know I've never been to Hawaii, but that sounds
like this movie rolls out. Get a little relaxing in.

Speaker 2 (10:24):
Finally, because this movie has completely owned my life for
the last four years.

Speaker 3 (10:28):
Every day I couldn't be proud of the result of it.
But yeah, I could use a vacation.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
Please come back to this show anytime in the future,
because I know you're not done yet, dude, and this
is going to service a platform to keep pushing that
word forward.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
Thank you, I really appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
Will you be brilliant today?

Speaker 3 (10:45):
Okay? Thank you man, I really appreciate the support
