DEBRIEFED - Chris Ramsay - UAPs With Former MUFON Director Luigi Venditelli - DEBRIEFED ep. 2 Aired: 2024-01-12 Duration: 05:47 === Channel Update and Project News (02:12) === [00:00:19] Just an update before we get into the podcast. [00:00:21] I know I haven't been very active on this channel in several months, and that is due to the workload that we have here. [00:00:27] But also, I'm currently investigating four different projects at the moment that we will be releasing, one of which will be coming out shortly. [00:00:38] I will keep you guys posted on that. [00:00:40] Secondly, if you want to support this channel, we now have merch available at first.shop. [00:00:45] We are launching the Area 52 patch, as well as the pin and this t shirt. [00:00:53] Ingo, we trust. [00:00:54] So, for those of you familiar with the first investigation that we've done, you'll know what that means. [00:01:01] So, check that out at first.shop. [00:01:03] Lastly, I want to say I will be uploading more frequently on this channel, and I'm going to try and get out at least monthly videos, if not podcasts, that will come out bi monthly. [00:01:13] One thing that really helps, especially if you're an audio listener, is going to whatever audio platform you listen to this podcast on and give it a five star rating. [00:01:23] The more people who do that, the better this podcast. [00:01:25] Will do in the ratings. [00:01:26] And obviously, the more attention I can put onto Area 52. [00:01:31] So, again, the better this channel does, the more attention it will receive from us here. [00:01:37] So, if you guys do want to encourage us, but you don't want to sign up to Patreon or buy the merch or any of that, well, something that you can do that is totally free is head over to whatever platform you're listening to this on, whether it's iTunes or Spotify, and leave us a really good rating. [00:01:50] That actually helps us quite a bit. [00:01:52] So, thank you. [00:01:53] Sorry for the long delay and enjoy the podcast. [00:01:57] Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to Debriefed. [00:01:59] Today on Debriefed, I have my esteemed guest here. [00:02:04] This is Luigi Venditelli. [00:02:06] Hi, you're so welcome. [00:02:07] Luigi has been involved in the UFO scene for what, over three decades now? [00:02:11] That's about right, yeah. [00:02:12] You were once the director of MUFON. [00:02:15] For Canada. [00:02:16] For Canada, which is the Mutual UFO Network. [00:02:18] Yep. [00:02:19] And yeah, today we're going to be talking a little bit about sightings, a little bit about craft, a little bit about UFOs and all that. [00:02:26] Can I just start by saying. === Welcome Luigi Venditelli to Debriefed (03:15) === [00:02:31] It's so much fun to be able to talk about this. [00:02:34] Yeah. [00:02:35] Do you ever get that feeling? [00:02:36] Always. [00:02:37] Yeah. [00:02:37] Because, like, you can't do it all the time. [00:02:39] You can't do it all the time. [00:02:41] And sometimes you're sort of forced to bite your tongue. [00:02:45] A little bit. [00:02:45] And I mean, especially on camera, but also just you don't know who you're talking to, right? [00:02:50] So you don't know at what level of insane they are, like I am. [00:02:57] And there's always going to be the ones where you're always scared that they're going to, in the middle of you talking, they're going to start looking at you up and down and you know you lost them. [00:03:06] Yeah. [00:03:06] You know, so you got to be careful with that. [00:03:08] Yeah. [00:03:10] That is true. [00:03:10] Do you ever get that feeling sometimes when you're speaking with someone and then you're like, maybe I said, Too much. [00:03:15] Oh, yeah. [00:03:15] It happens a lot. [00:03:16] Yeah. [00:03:17] It still happens. [00:03:17] A friend of mine says that when it comes to this subject, the more you talk, the crazier you sound. [00:03:24] And it's one of those things that I just can't help sounding crazy because I'm really passionate about it. [00:03:29] Yeah. [00:03:29] I've been in this stuff since I was young. [00:03:31] What was the trigger that got you into this? [00:03:34] Was there, like, for me, it was Fire in the Sky, the Travis Walton story. [00:03:38] And that maybe is something we can get into after, but you're a friend of Travis. [00:03:42] Yeah. [00:03:42] Yeah. [00:03:42] Definitely we'll get into that. [00:03:44] But what got you into this whole thing? [00:03:46] I started super young. [00:03:47] I was. [00:03:48] I was nine, so it must have been like 1984. [00:03:50] And my. [00:03:51] That's when I was born. [00:03:54] Really? [00:03:54] Yeah. [00:03:55] Oh, wow. [00:03:55] I was nine. [00:03:55] Yeah. [00:03:56] So I was. [00:03:57] My grandfather, my mom's dad, he was an Italian soldier and also a prisoner in a concentration camp in Germany during the Second World War. [00:04:09] He almost died. [00:04:10] And he knew a lot about aviation and the military and all that. [00:04:17] He was very much involved in the Second World War. [00:04:20] So in 1965. [00:04:22] Five years after that, he immigrated to Canada. [00:04:25] He was living in an apartment with my grandmother, my mom, and my aunt. [00:04:31] And he had a couple that came, friends from Italy, that came to visit. [00:04:35] He was outside. [00:04:36] He was having a cigarette on the balcony on Chabanel. [00:04:39] Anybody who knows the street Chabanel in Montreal knows where that is. [00:04:44] And there was no buildings at the time. [00:04:47] So anytime somebody goes there now, it's full of buildings. [00:04:50] There was none of that. [00:04:51] And he says it was a huge field going all the way north. [00:04:54] And suddenly, him and his friends see this. [00:04:57] Object from the horizon coming towards them really fast, and he knew right away he says that thing is moving way too fast to be normal. [00:05:06] So he stood up, they were sitting down, he stood up, and he's he says, We didn't even have the time to kind of react that it came like, Whoa! [00:05:14] And he says, It was a giant round silver disc, oh my god, with fire coming out of it. [00:05:21] And he and it went so fast that they both ran into the apartment, scared my mom, who was younger, my grandmother went to the window. [00:05:30] On the other side. [00:05:31] And by the time they got to the other side, it was on the horizon of the other side. [00:05:36] So he said, you know, and they were screaming, and his friend as well, in Italian, disco volante, which means flying saucer. [00:05:44] And he always stuck to the story. [00:05:46] So I used to be.
