Today, Dan and Jordan take a Wacky Wednesday break from talking about Alex Jones to take a little look into some chaos in Project Camelot land. Sweary Kerry has been pretty mad lately about a British guy who is making a documentary about how her friend Mark Richards is not a space captain (which he is not), but actually a murderer (which he is). As professional Mark Richards analysts, the gents decide that they need to know a little more about this situation, so they dig in and see what's up.
If you're listening out there and you're thinking, I like this show, I'd like to support what these guys do, you can do that by going to our website, knowledgefight.com, clicking that button to support the show.
So on our last episode about Carrie Cassidy's adventures, pretending that convicted murderer Mark Richards, her adventure trying to pretend that he's actually a secret space program who's friends with raptor aliens, on that last time that we looked into that stuff, it came After watching the trailer for that documentary, my response was that it looked pretty amazing.
The story of Mark Richards is absolutely one that deserves more attention.
It has a true crime angle.
It has a sci-fi angle.
It has a love story.
You know, both with Mark and his wife and with Mark and the raptor princess.
So the idea of someone making a documentary about it, obviously, I'm like, fuck yes, let's do this.
I got very excited about the possibility that someone who had the funding to do it and was able to interview people involved in the murder that Mark committed, as well as delusional defenders like Carrie, I got really excited about that possibility, what we could possibly see come from this.
My tone was very positive about it.
And that was based pretty much entirely on the trailer, which showed damning testimony against Mark and hilarious moments where Carrie Cassidy tries to convince the filmmaker that Mark was off-planet when the murder happened and his friends with Raptors.
But the more I thought about it, the more something didn't quite sit right.
I was about to say, there's a very large butt coming, and I feel like we're going to find out that the guy who makes the documentary is even crazier than Mark Richards.
I mean, I realize that, like I said, I know nothing about this guy other than Carrie's accusation that he's a dildo salesman engaged in a hatchet job against Mark Richards at the behest of the Reptilian Cabal.
But I realize that's the extent of what I really knew about him, and that's not acceptable.
If there's anything I try to do on this podcast, it's to learn as much as I can, especially about the things that matter the least.
I don't know nearly enough about this British guy who's making this documentary about a subject that we've covered on our show pretty much since we started doing this show.
some of the damage that this does to the communities is not only is it damaging to credible researchers but it's also damaging to people's awakening you know when people are trying to explore the idea that you know there's a greater reality and when it's met with misinformation and disinformation you know I'm sensing red flags.
I've made it my calling right now, or part of my calling, to show the opposite side of some of these so-called whistleblowers.
If you take him at what he's saying, he's saying that there are credible researchers in the field, and people like Mark Richards, they are a disservice to those people who are actively searching.
Because, you know, I think that there are people who aren't crazy who are into aliens and stuff like that.
That absolutely exists in this wide old world.
So if you take him at, like, just boil down what he's saying to that crystalline center, I don't know.
It sounds like a pretty decent motivation for making a documentary.
So you get the sense that this is really how he's presenting the motivation that he has for embarking on this documentary about Mark Richards actually being a murderer and Carrie Cassidy and Joanne Richards being just these people who are full of shit and helping him, a murderer, push his story on the masses.
So, Kevin Moore has a YouTube channel that's been active since October 19th, 2011, when he posted a teaser trailer for his forthcoming show called The Moore Show.
This was a show that he was trying to sell to people that was vaguely a spiritualist talk show on which he would interview writers and actors from the UK, as well as astronomers and political activists.
There's the appearance of this being a pretty normal show, but just with a slight undercurrent of New Age stuff.
Talking to a bunch of folks who wanted to tell you how imminent UFO disclosure was.
It was right around the corner.
But all the while, straightforward musical acts would still make appearances, and he would have interviews with guests like David Prowse, who played Darth Vader, and Joe Frost from the show Super Nanny.
Interestingly, the tenth video he posted back in 2011 was an interview about America's collapsing economy with frequent Alex Jones guest and longtime contributor to the white nationalist-adjacent publication V-Dare, Paul Craig Roberts.
Possibly worse, or at least certainly more boring, Kevin also had an interview with Jerome Corsi a few years back.
So you can see that there's not just one point of similarity to the stuff we talk about.
There's overlaps here.
We're starting to seep through.
As time went on, you see a trend towards this new age and spiritualism stuff take complete center stage, becoming the primary topic of pretty much all of his videos that he released.
We're talking about constant interviews of psychics, astrologists, and past life regressionists.
Kevin landed interviews with the two big names in the field, David Icke, and on January 29, 2012, he posted an interview with Carrie Cassidy herself.
It was mostly a softball interview about how Project Camelot was a portal for whistleblowers, and ultimately the content of that interview isn't nearly as interesting as the fact that it exists.
But I will tell you, you can go ahead and go find it.
It's still on his YouTube channel, and he is in no way critical of her.
He doesn't push back against her sort of very nonsensical things that she says.
So also...
On June 10th, 2012, Kevin Moore released an interview with Jim Fetzer.
He hadn't written it yet, so maybe Kevin shouldn't be judged too harshly about this aspect, but in 2015, Fetzer would publish a book called No One Died at Sandy Hook.
All I'm saying, though, about Jim Fetzer and him having an interview with that dude, like, whatever kind of plausible deniability you might have about, like, a late 2012 interview with him, you don't have it anymore.
You should take that shit the fuck off your YouTube channel.
Kevin Moore has rebranded into a voice of skepticism and is making a documentary about how Mark Richards is a murderer who defrauded everyone into thinking he's a space captain.
He puts out frequent vlogs on his YouTube channel that often come off as a bit aggressive about how his documentary is going to undo all the damage that Carrie has done.
Carrie's not really been taking the high road on this whole thing, and she's been talking a lot of shit about him on Project Camelot.
So I could kind of understand and excuse a little bit of that aggro tone that he has in that last clip about, like, you know, it's worth all the work, and I'm going to expose all this.
And similarly, this sort of exasperation, this aggro tone that comes through here when he's addressing her and Joanne Richards in this vlog that he released from April 19th, 2000.
unidentified
2009.
And Kerry and Joanne, if you're watching this thing, guys, this is what you should have done in the first place.
You should have looked into his case, gone to the Civic Center, dug out all the court records, gone and interviewed everyone that you could have found that knew Mark Richards, and you would have saved yourself so much embarrassment of making this guy your top whistleblower.
But don't worry, I'll do it I mean, it's pretty aggressive, but...
For us, people completely detached from the reality of all this.
This is a funny story.
Carrie's being lied to by a crazy guy in prison who says he hangs out with raptors.
But for other people, this is real life.
Richard Baldwin was a real person who was murdered.
His family lost a loved one that day when Mark and Crossan Hoover killed him.
Mark and Crossan's families had to deal with the pain of a relative committing a murder and have had to carry and work through the stigma that comes along with that ever since.
As Kevin rightly points out in this clip from the introduction to the trailer for his documentary, what Carrie and Joanne do has a negative effect on the people most hurt by Mark's crime.
You know, I've met the only sole surviving member of the family, Susan Baldwin, who was devastated to know that Kerry and Joe are giving Mark the platform that they are for him to spew his misinformation.
After hearing something like that, you know what would be really funny?
It'd be kind of hilarious if, oh, I don't know, it turned out that on March 28th, 2015, Kevin Moore gave Joanne Richards a platform on his show to spread misinformation about the secret space program and her heroic husband, Captain Mark Richards.
Now, I should be clear, I'm not calling him Captain Mark Richards.
That's why, like, a clip you played a little bit ago, he said, I don't know how these idiots in our community, and that was a big red flag for me there.
So Kevin Moore is now working on a documentary about how Mark Richards is a murderer and people shouldn't be treating him like a legitimate source of information.
So I feel like maybe it's in our best interests to check in and see just how well he handled himself when he had the chance to either push back or accept the bullshit that Mark's wife was telling him when she was a guest on his show.
I think you could probably already guess that if you did a good job, this episode wouldn't be happening.
So strap it in and let's enjoy Kevin Moore being a complete fucking idiot while Joanne Richards lies to him about her murderer husband's space adventures.
This is pathetic.
So, here in this first clip, Kevin introduces Joanne as his guest for this episode.
Now, Joanne Richards is the wife of Navy Captain Mark Richards, who claims he was an officer involved in the Dulcy Battle, as well as very active in the Secret Space Program and U.S. Space Command.
Now that the premise is established that Kevin is completely open to the idea that he was off the planet during the murder, that allows Joanne to spin whatever narrative she wants about the murder.
And so what she does is get into a little bit of a lackadaisical libel about a murder victim.
So now then, to go to the murder, in 1982, a murder happened here.
Of a friend of his, one of his cover businesses for doing his military stuff was remodeling people's houses or whatever.
So he was doing a remodeling project at a friend's house, and the guy also had a business restoring antique cars.
What my husband didn't know at the time was that the guy was also filming child pornography in his house, and he was a drug dealer.
Bad dude.
And then these kids that worked for my husband, because my husband had a generous heart and had a habit of hiring basically juvenile delinquents, and these kids killed the guy.
And when they started getting in trouble or whatever, they just said my husband masterminded the whole thing.
So, without any evidence, he allows Joanne Richards to assert that the person who her husband was responsible for murdering was a child pornographer, and, you know, he kind of deserved it.
He hired these juvenile delinquents, and because he's such a good guy and gave them so many chances, he introduced murder into his life, but it's not really that big a deal because the dude was a child pornographer anyway.
So, she's saying that about Baldwin, Richard Baldwin.
And...
At the same time, Kevin isn't asking any follow-up questions, so it's allowed to exist as part of the corpus of information that's being presented to his listeners, which makes me remember this clip from just a little bit ago.
I've met the only sole surviving member of the family, Susan Baldwin, who was devastated to know that Kerry and Joe are giving Mark the platform that they are.
He has alibis for the other days, and he might even have an alibi for the day he was off on a mission, but he now at least implies or will say I probably wasn't there.
Basically, it just comes down to, I've chosen to believe that he didn't do this, and he can't tell me where he was or what he was up to or how he got anywhere, which I would argue, just speaking as myself, is the very definition of not having an alibi.
But he does ask one good question in this next clip, and that is he's trying to get to the core of, like, why is he coming out with this information now?
Because he thought maybe the first 10 years of prison there was still a chance of him getting out through legal channels.
He exhausted pretty much all his legal remedies.
And after 10, 15 years of prison, he was pretty tired of prison.
And so he decided, well, I'm just going to start writing this stuff and I'm just going to start sharing some of this information that can be leaked out there because, number one, people will think he's crazy so they won't believe him anyway.
Well, he's exhausted all of his legal channels, so he's kind of made peace with he's going to be there forever, and he realizes that without that hope propelling him, his days are real long.
I think a better question would be, are you sure that...
Have you seen somebody?
That might be rude, too.
So Joanne starts going off about how all these countries work together and aliens work together with all of our countries because there's the appearance of tension, but really behind the scenes everyone's working together like they did in the Cold War.
People were all working together behind the scenes, but they couldn't appear to be because of the Cold War.
I mean, it's a nonsensical idea, but this clip is important because listen to how Kevin is responding to her ideas.
There's a collaborative aspect to this.
He agrees with her and builds on points that she's making.
And when we were having the Cold War, most of these countries were actually working together when there was a common threat, even though they couldn't publicly say that.
But you had this agency that worked together and pulled in people from many different countries and different militaries working together against a common threat.
So, you know, they're all working together, but they all have to keep it secret.
Because they don't think the world in general can handle the truth.
This next clip, I think, is probably where this interview is the most irresponsible.
Not in terms of, like, the content, stuff like that.
Because I think allowing Joanne to say that this murder victim, Richard Baldwin, was a child pornographer without any evidence, I think that's the most deeply irresponsible thing that you could do if you're covering this story.
There's some problems here with the story that Joanne's telling Kevin about her husband's alleged military service that he really should be asking follow-up questions about in the instinct that you just expressed.
The fact that he's not indicates to me that he's actively participating in letting her spread dubious bullshit on his show, and he really doesn't care to push back on it at all.
The most glaring problem with what Joanne is saying is that Mark became a captain in the Army, then, quote, moved sideways and became a captain in the Navy.
While it is true that a captain is a rank in both branches of the armed services, only someone who doesn't know anything about the services would think that going from army captain to navy captain is moving sideways, or is a lateral move.
In the army, captain is an O3 position, achieved after reaching the ranks of second lieutenant and first lieutenant.
Okay.
The second problem is that she's just saying that he switched branches of enlistment, as if that's something you could just do on a whim.
While it is possible to switch branches, it's not a very common thing.
And the process is really pretty complicated.
There's a saying that I ran into a few times while looking into this that goes like this.
It's easier to join the military from the street than from the fleet.
Which is to express inner branch switches are not very common.
What you have to consider is that the Navy is not just the Army, but with boats.
The different branches of service have different cultures, different missions, and different training that recruits go through.
Someone who reaches O3 in the Army most likely has a very different set of skills than someone who reaches O3 in the Navy, and there's no real guarantee that those skills are going to be transferable.
This isn't to say that it's never done, but it's pretty rare.
And when it does happen, it never comes with an arbitrary three-rank promotion, just so All right, Captain Richards.
The story that Joanne is telling indicates a lack of awareness of how the military works, a lack of awareness that Captain isn't the same rank in the Army and the Navy, and a lack of awareness that there's literally no proof that Mark was even ever in the Army or in Vietnam.
Right.
Military records do exist that show that Mark's dad, Ellis, or the Dutchman, joined the Air Force in 1942.
Military records also show that he was involved in four plane crashes during his enlistment between 1943 and 1952.
I'll read to you from the report about his 1952 crash.
The canopy exploded off, but not by the pilot, and the tail section broke off at the turbine wheel section.
The cockpit section remained intact very well.
The pilot's head was dragged along the ground, inflicting many deep cuts and a brain concussion, also breaking his neck.
This plane crash led to Ellis leaving the service and to him being partially paralyzed.
Newspaper articles about Mark's arrest and trial include quotes from Ellis, and they all mention that he was disabled, which makes it very unlikely that he was going on space battles after 1952, or that he was fighting in the Dulcy Base battle years later, as Mark has said.
Ellis died before Joanne ever met Mark, so all she really knows about him is what he's told her.
Mark is almost certainly making up his military service.
He claims that he served in Vietnam, but Saigon fell in April 1975, and Mark graduated from Dominican College with a history degree in 1976.
He was born in 1953, so being 22 or 23 at the time of graduating from an undergraduate program is right on schedule.
And in 1973, he was arrested for insurance fraud, and though the charges were eventually dropped, it's pretty strong proof that he wasn't in Vietnam at the time.
There's literally no proof that Mark was ever enlisted.
No documentation, no pictures of him in uniform, no medals or stripes.
Short of some sort of bombshell that they're just not showing anybody for some reason, it's pretty easy to see that this is a case of stolen valor on Mark's part.
And a decent interviewer would have sniffed out that possibility the second Joanne said that Mark moved sideways from Army Captain to Navy Captain.
It's an absurd statement.
And Kevin doesn't bat an eyelash.
He doesn't ask a follow-up question because he's an active participant in platforming this bullshit.
And even like Carrie Cassidy, she's been there twice now, and just anybody who goes to visit him, I don't want to say, I try not to put him on a pedestal, but you're just in awe of the wealth of information that he knows on so many levels.
The second you hear any of that, if you're not actively interested in trying to get a piece of it or something, then obviously you'd be like, look at this asshole.
I don't know if you remember earlier in this interview, Joanne said that Mark went to an alien conference.
Well, yeah.
Interstellar conference.
And so what that is all about is there's a bunch of alien races, right, that are coming here and they're going to decide whether we get to go to space.
And so Mark gets to meet the Raptors for the first time.
He thought it was the first time.
And he becomes really good friends with Princess Linka and Prince Craig.
And they were several years older.
He was six or seven, no, seven going on eight that summer.
And they were probably, you know, they were several years older, like human years.
But they just became great friends.
And Mark's English friend, Titania, was with him.
And the humans that were there decided they wanted to have this little experiment and see, well, how are the human children going to react and get along with the alien children?
Fortunately, the raptors didn't eat them, so that was cool.
I was watching your reactions, and you got real fucking shrugging and like, what the fuck is she even talking about when she said they're a couple years old in human years, and I actually think that's the most important distinction.
You were rolling your eyes at that, and you're like, I'm glad she clarified.
unidentified
Because I was going to ask, like, they're on different planets.
And as we know, one of the main characters from his book, Macro Shark Rampant.
The best name ever.
One of the things that I think is super important to recognize here is that he doesn't ask any fucking follow-ups after that nonsense.
The idea that Joanne is presenting this idea that Mark, as a child, went to a conference in the UK where he made friends with raptor babies who might have eaten him because his dad had made friends with raptor royalty a few years prior.
And they're basically scientists and artists and archaeologists.
You know, the one he talks about the most, she's a contessa.
She comes here to the planet on archaeological digs because she's trying to discover evidence of when and where her species has been when they visited Earth.
So, for example, when you hear of a terrorist activity, maybe at a shopping mall or maybe in a Middle Eastern country, for example, it's not always just the human terrorists that are at fault.
They're often working with alien, negative aliens.
I mean, I know we've barely touched, we haven't covered Dulce, we haven't covered barely anything.
So what I'm going to do is I'm going to get you back on on a future show.
I mean, again, I would recommend people to, and we'll put links on there for the Carrie Cassidy interviews as well, because, you know, she goes a lot more into depth into this whole amazing story.
If people go on my website, and will you put up the link for that?
Edhca.org for Earth Defense Headquarters.
If you go on my website and click on products, I have descriptions of all the different reports that I sell that he's written about his different missions and adventures.
I mean, they sound like adventures, but they're true military missions.
This is all that we really need to listen to here from that interview without just playing the entire thing, but you get the taste of it.
This is an interview where Kevin Moore does literally nothing to push back against any of the things that Joanne Richards is telling him.
He believes her.
He doubles down on her narratives and is not in any way exercising skepticism or looking for evidence for anything.
He even establishes that Mark was away on a mission when Richard Baldwin's murder happened.
Joanne didn't even have to say that as an answer to an open question.
Kevin established it for her.
Something like that makes Kevin's claims of caring so much about how Baldwin's sister was appalled at care Yeah.
So I just...
Here's the thing.
The more I look at Kevin Moore's videos about his documentary that he's making, the more I think he's a fucking asshole.
Yeah.
You look at the past, you look at this stuff, the fact that he's actively engaged in spreading these stories before, and then now is like, how dare you spread these stories?
But before we get to that, I want to tell you, I think he's an asshole.
And one of the reasons is things like this.
This clip that he's put out in one of these vlogs, where he seems to be saying that part of his research that he's doing for this documentary is digging into the validity of Mark and Joanne's marriage.
But one thing that's important to remember is that Joanne, by her own admission, has, quote, been married and divorced several times because she, quote, had some pretty awful marriages.
Getting married and divorced frequently can lead to some nominal confusion, especially to external observers, and it seems like Kevin's trying to take that and make it seem suspicious.
But ultimately it just feels petty and vindictive.
Yeah.
unidentified
Their marriage has nothing to do with this documentary as it's being presented.
And I have a few other reasons to be suspicious about Kevin's tone and the way he's carrying himself.
One of those has to do with the fact that in May 2018, Kevin Moore had another interview with Carrie Cassidy.
His interview with Joanne Richards was from 2015, so I suppose he could make the argument that in the intervening years he'd had a change of heart about the whole matter, and he's now working to right those wrongs, like you suggested earlier.
From how the clip of Carrie was used in the trailer, you get the sense that Kevin was confronting her about how Mark was actually guilty of the murder, and she foolishly insists that he was framed.
Plus, the clip that plays right after is meant to drive home that intended message.
Now, let's listen to how that exchange actually went down in the context of the actual interview from May 2018.
It pains me to say this, Jordan, and you know me, I don't ever want to be coming to Carrie Cassidy's defense, but from everything I've been able to tell, I really think Kevin Moore is doing our girl dirty.
Like, I think he's doing some bad shit here.
Nothing about what he's doing feels sincere.
There's even something about the whole thing that feels vindictive and dishonest in some way.
Something must have happened between May 2018 and the present day that sent Kevin Moore on this trajectory, but I can't pretend that I have any idea what that thing would have...
Because I wholeheartedly agree with the idea of someone making a documentary about how Mark Richards is a charlatan and a murderer masquerading as a heroic space captain.
The story is perfect for a farcical documentary, so long as the subject matter is treated with the respect that the victim's loved ones deserve.
I kind of forgot to tell you that in the description of that video, Kevin also announces that he, quote, has now started his own international psychic service, so support The Moore Show and get a reading.
Uh-oh.
It turns out that Kevin has been trying to market psychic abilities for money going on for at least eight years.
Kevin provides a link to book him for a reading, so maybe he is a psychic, on tmspsychics.com, which now redirects to channeling.com, a website offering channeled readings from extraterrestrials and other dimensional beings delivered to you for a price from a team of mediums working for Kevin Moore.
Or at least I assume they're working for him, considering that Kevin's face is the logo for the website and he recorded a welcome message that plays on the front page.
Oh, and also in the links section at the bottom of the page.
I don't want to put this too strongly, but I would be lying if I said this didn't seem like one of the biggest scam operations I've stumbled into accidentally over the course of doing this show.
Quote, All our readers are experts at telephone readings, and when you call, they'll connect to you through your voice vibration by picking up variations in the voice, much like radio waves.
As your face can't be read during a phone call, readers rely on their gift alone, making the reading more relevant.
I decided to dig around a little and see who some of these mediums are that Kevin was employing.
There's at least 36 mediums that Kevin's been able to find, screen, and convince to work for him on the phone, which alone seems like a Herculean effort that he's managed to pull off.
Kevin Moore is operating a Miss Cleo-style psychic hotline, and he's possibly stealthily using his radio show to promote the people who offer services for money on it.
But at least he's not running around acting like he can contact otherworldly entities himself.
I mean, if this guy, he's making a documentary exposing the lies of Captain Mark Richards because he cares so much about maintaining the integrity of serious-minded, evidence-based researchers in his community, he wouldn't be doing something like that.
And all he's doing is talking with his eyes closed, bobbing his head a little bit, and appearing slightly strained.
It has the feeling of, you know how if you watch a band, the lead guitarist will make that pained look while they're doing a solo?
It really looks a lot like that.
In the first channeling session he released, the entities that were speaking through him seemed particularly interested in just kind of bragging about Kevin's channeling abilities, which I find a little bit strange.
unidentified
We come to you.
As many.
The gift of Kevin is the gift to be able to channel multiple entities, multiple beings.
And yet at the same time, I just find this dichotomy fascinating that the channeled entities that come through them really seem like they just want to stroke their egos.
He understood at the deepest part of his core the importance of the work that needs to be undertaken now at this, as we've said, special time on planet Earth.
It's possibly unrelated, but in August 2014, which is about five months before this, Kevin started to make a ton of videos about Edgar Cayce.
From August to the end of that year, 19 out of the 31 videos he posted on his YouTube channel, not counting the two-part Best of 2014 series, were about Edgar Cayce.
For some context, his channel had existed, regularly posting videos about New Age and spiritualist topics for three years at that point, and he had released exactly zero videos about Edgar Cayce until then.
Clearly, the topic was a bit of a new obsession for him.
Edgar Cayce is the guy who's largely considered to be one of the founders of the New Age movement.
He was a real weirdo from the early 1900s who would channel higher-level entities while he was pretending to be asleep.
Then he'd pretend not to have any idea what he'd said once he woke up, and at a certain point in his career, everyone started writing down everything he said while he was pretending to be asleep, and he's become...
He's called the sleeping prophet, or the sleeping mystic.
Totally, but that's one of the things that people who have gone back and studied, people who channel stuff, one of the things that's fascinating about it is all of the entities seem to be stuck in the time frame and the understanding and conventional wisdom of whatever time period the person who's channeling the material is in.
So what's important here is that in August 2014, Kevin Moore started making a ton of videos about Edgar Cayce and interviewing people about him.
And then a couple months later, he coincidentally discovers amazing channeling abilities and he uses them to talk to entities who have important messages for humanity that only he can reveal.
But it's not like these things are connected or anything.
That's just me taking two separate things and pretending they're related.
I might be doing that.
Or I might have watched a ton of his channeling videos and heard him say this.
I find it incredibly fascinating that Edgar Cayce is like this...
Disease that spreads through New Age communities.
It's kind of like that Jerusalem Syndrome thing where some people go to Jerusalem and they end up thinking that they're Jesus.
It's just something.
It's a phenomenon that happens.
People don't quite understand exactly why.
People who are kind of unhinged and maybe a little bit ambitious, they get involved in the New Age stuff, they interact with his material a little bit, read some of his stuff, and then they start to think they are him.
You've got this Kevin Moore who's pretending that he has Edgar Cayce talking through him.
In the same way David Wilcox has made a career off saying that he's the reincarnation of Edgar Cayce.
It's just this frequent thing where these con artists use him in order to reinforce and add legitimacy to their scams.
His history shows a real pattern of using New Age beliefs and spiritualism as a business model.
He runs a psychic hotline, and he's tried to establish himself as a super important medium who's channeling critical messages for humanity coming from Edgar Cayce, as well as other less recognizably named entities.
When it suited his purpose, he's been perfectly willing to unquestionably platform Joanne Richards and Carrie Cassidy and allow them to spread misinformation about Mark Richards, even going out of his way to help them deflect from the criticism that Mark is a murderer.
And now that's all changed, and he's a heroic crusader who's going to stand up for fact-based investigators in the New Age world and expose Mark, Joanne, and Carrie.
I'm sure you can see how this feels like it's complete bullshit.
His motivation can't be that he's offended by what they're saying because he's been a part of saying literally the same things.
He can't be interested in defending rigorously researched and fact-based investigations in alternative communities because Mark Richards being a secret space captain has exactly as much proof attached to it as him channeling Edgar Cayce.
Something is up here, and I think I might have accidentally stumbled onto a clue as to what it is.
Obviously, I can't prove anything, but I have a bit of suspicion that Kevin Moore is not making this documentary out of a concern for the truth, nor even out of just a sincere desire to tell this completely insane and awesome story of Mark Richards.
When Kevin interviewed Rashmi, the psychic hotline employee who can talk to Jesus and Buddha, he brings up a particular lament that I found very interesting.
We do, but I haven't posted on it in a very long time.
Project Camelot has approximately 230,000 subscribers, almost four times Kevin's audience.
Some of his videos get a few thousand views, but some of them, like an interview about robots that he did three weeks ago, currently sits at 834 views.
His 2018 interview with Carrie Cassidy has over 32,000 views, well over the average on his channel.
You can clearly see that it drives traffic.
Project Camelot is a larger entity and a bigger thing than him.
Kevin recently did an Indiegogo campaign to make a documentary about how channelers are totally real, which seems kind of like it's across purposes for someone who runs a psychic hotline.
Kind of makes that documentary feel like it's a bit of an extended commercial, but whatever.
In the time that the campaign was active, it eclipsed its goal of reaching $15,000, ending up with just a little bit over $27,000.
But what I find suspicious is that this total came from only 82 donors, which is an average of about 300 per person.
There are red flags all over this crowdfunding campaign, but I won't bore you with the numbers.
I did some weird math, and some of it just does not make sense.
There's all kinds of people who didn't claim reward tier prizes or anything.
So that leads me to believe that a lot of them were lower donations than the lowest tier.
And the lowest tier is $25.
So there's probably a lot of them who were below $25.
But she had 189 people donate, over twice what Kevin pulled in.
Strangely, Kevin's also running a GoFundMe campaign to get his two documentaries made, the Mark Richards one and the one about channelers.
And to launch, he also wants to launch the International Spiritual News Network.
So he also wants a TV network.
The campaign on GoFundMe has only raised 527 pounds from 19 donors in five months.
I'm not trying to suggest that Kevin is getting dark money or anything like that.
That's nonsense.
I'm suggesting that it looks very possible that the donations he got from his Indiegogo campaign came from a sponsor, most likely Ozark Mountain Publishing, a New Age book distributor that Kevin has acknowledged as a sponsor regularly in the past and who runs ads on his show.
It seems entirely possible that he launched the crowdfunding for his documentaries, no one was interested, and his sponsor stepped in to create the appearance of demand.
I have a strong suspicion that Kevin Moore is not motivated by preserving truth.
Everything I've seen gives me the strong indication that a much more likely explanation for all of this is that Kevin wants to take over Carrie Cassidy's share of the new age bullshit market.
This feels like the equivalent of a situation where a mobster is extorting a store owner who is then killed by another way worse mobster.
Yeah, sure.
You got rid of the mobster extorting the store owner, but you only did that so you could prey on that store owner yourself.
Or a British guy who can channel Edgar Cayce and has been running an exorbitantly priced psychic hotline for the better part of a decade, sincerely cares about misinformation being spread in the New Age community, even though he was an active participant in spreading the exact same misinformation and seemed to support Cary Caskey spreading it less than a year ago.
Like to laugh at Carrie and enjoy and have fun, and then whenever she says things that are like, uh-oh, that sounds Nazi-ish, we complain and condemn her for that.
But there's no, like, this is such bullshit for one reason, one reason only.
Like, even the very idea of what he's doing is so stupid.
Because...
There's no way that you're going to make this documentary about Mark Richards and then people are going to be like, oh my god, Project Camelot is bullshit.
I mean, if you don't look into any of this stuff, like I didn't initially, you just see this documentary for this, or this trailer for the documentary, and you're like, fuck yes!
You run the very serious risk of endorsing someone because you like the idea of this documentary instead of looking at what's going on here and realizing he runs a psychic hotline and he thinks he can channel entities and he's just as bad, if not worse.
I think he's absolutely worse than Carrie, at least for that channeling hotline.
The idea that he runs a $100 an hour minimum psychic hotline is crazy.
Like, that to me is funneling your audience towards something so much more destructive than just the stupid ideas that Carrie pimps.
I don't have those feelings, but I do feel protective a little bit.
But one of the big reasons is that I see much more craft.
On Kevin's part.
I see much more malice and intent on his part.
What he wants to do with this stuff doesn't strike me as positive.
And he also seems like he's probably a lot more enterprising and a lot more capable.
Carrie has probably gotten to the height that she can ever get to.
She made a...
Like a pilot for a TV, like a true TV show.
And then she does these YouTube videos where everything glitches all the time and dogs bark in the background and she talks to people who lie to her about space.
