[0:01:06 - 0:01:13] Jacques Valle is the ultimate archetype of this. He is a serious researcher with the computer science, physics, and astronomy background.
                       [0:01:29 - 0:01:37] In fact, it's now almost conventional knowledge that if you're an average citizen who encounters a UFO crash, mail the materials to 
Jacques.
                       [0:01:37 - 0:01:42] Jacques's books are incredibly dense and detailed, not for the faint of heart.
                       [0:01:42 - 0:01:50] But if you read them closely, 
Jacques can drop some truth bombs you won't get anywhere else, like in his book Revelations, Alien Contact in Human Deception.
                       [0:02:13 - 0:02:21] But perhaps what I find most interesting about 
Jacques is that he's just as mystical as he is hard-headed and scientific.
                       [0:02:46 - 0:02:52] he decided to base the character played by Francois Truffaut off of 
Jacques.
                       [0:02:52 - 0:02:57] I've been privileged enough to have a few private conversations with 
Jacques prior to this interview.
                       [0:03:44 - 0:03:56] So without further ado, hit subscribe, sit back and enjoy this long awaited interview with the French godfather of UFOs, my friend and this week's American Alchemist, the legendary 
Jacques Bale.
                       [0:05:48 - 0:05:53] But why would 
Jacques, at the age of 83, write just another UFO crash story?
                                             [0:06:52 - 0:07:01] Number two, when 
Jacques inquired about Trinity, no one with top secret clearances in the US federal government had even heard of the case.
                       [0:24:26 - 0:24:32] One of my all-time favorite 
Jacques Valle-books is his 1969 classic, Passport to Magonia.
                                             [0:39:44 - 0:39:50] Jacques seems to have a longstanding interest in esotericism and specifically rosicrucianism.
                       [0:39:50 - 0:40:09] In the 70s, 
Jacques named both his independent group of UFO researchers and his seminal book about their learnings, the Invisible College, a reference to Robert Boyle's 17th century group of heretical natural philosophers that eventually became the Royal Society and was heavily influenced by rosicrucian ideas.
