Jay Stratton’s FIRST-EVER Interview - Before The World Knew His Name

WeaponizedOct 21, 2026

George Knapp and Jeremy Corbell revisit Jay Stratton's first-ever on-camera interview from 2022, recorded years before he became the public face of UAP disclosure. Stratton, the only official known to have worked on AAWSAP, AATIP and the UAP Task Force, describes receiving the Gimbal and GoFast videos, sharing UAP data with defense contractors, and having three PhDs assess the USS Russell footage as a self-illuminating pyramid. The hosts also discuss Stratton's new book Out of the Shadows, his admission that he is 'Axelrod' from Skinwalkers at the Pentagon, the newly found AAWSAP files, and an alleged CIA block on Lockheed handing over crash materials.

Journalist Ben Schreckinger, who first made his name covering Donald Trump's rise for Politico, explains how he put Jay Stratton's claim that former AARO director Sean Kirkpatrick was compromised by a secret UFO legacy program directly to Kirkpatrick. Kirkpatrick called it nonsense and hit back, accusing Stratton and his 'band of pseudoscientists' of violating national security law. The conversation also covers Trump's stance on disclosure, the Jim Ryder lead in Stratton's book, John Herrington's shifting account of the Brent Friedman story, and the surprising overlap between UFOs and psychic research.

12 UFOs at Lockheed? Unpacking Jay Stratton’s Claims

Andy McGrillen and Pavel of CicoActivo dissect former senior US intelligence official Jay Stratton's new memoir 'Out of the Shadows,' which claims a hidden 'legacy program' has been recovering and reverse engineering non-human craft. The standout allegation, relayed from Lockheed's Jim Ryder, is that Lockheed held 12 recovered craft of non-human origin around 2009, with some occupants captured alive before dying. The hosts weigh whether the book delivers bombshells, breadcrumbs, or BS, noting that much of it is secondhand and that Stratton calls out unnamed whistleblowers and media proxies without naming them.
