Thomas Jane (1:00)

I've always been terrified.

Chris Ramsay (1:03)

Just in general?

Thomas Jane (1:04)

I think it's part of what I'm here to learn. You find meaning in everything once you have a purpose, a journey.

And I think that it's time for us to make it okay to talk about this stuff. I don't have any answers. I have no clue, except for I know what happened to me. I know what I saw.

And then I never woke up. The next day, I was somebody else.

Thomas Jane (1:54)

Yeah, so I'm calling to report an incident that happened when I was active duty military, US. Army in Kitzingen, Germany in 2002 We were at the firing range, and a gigantic UFO appeared above us, and most people were frozen in time, just frozen, including myself But. I could see, I could move my eyes. And I had a cigarette in my hand before the incident happened. And when it ended, the cigarette was burnt all the way down to the filter. So we definitely lost time, like a few minutes. And I did hear a voice in my head speak to me. And what it said was that not to be afraid that they weren't going to harm us, but they were collecting a DNA scare.

And ever since then, I have had some very strange streams, very strange downloads.

I watch your podcast all the time. I just wanted to leave this information that it definitely has happened to me.

Chris Ramsay (3:00)

Welcome, Thomas Jane.

Thomas Jane (3:02)

Thank you.

Chris Ramsay (3:04)

For those of you who are not familiar with some of your work, I would definitely type them out on IMDb, and you'll probably recognize a few movies, at least, at the very least, that you've been a part of. I mean, just I found out yesterday, you've done a lot of Stephen King movies, actually. Three of them. Yeah. The Dreamcatcher, 1922, and then The Mist. Yeah. Mist, which is an amazing movie by every standard, I think to this day is just one of those really, really incredible ones. By the way, on a side here, have you seen Widows Bay? No, not yet. It's on Apple. It's great. It's a horror slash comedy. Matthew Reese is the lead. Oh, yeah.

Phenomenal, but he borrows from so many Stephen King movies, including The Mist. At one point, his character, he's like the town mayor, Mayor Tom, he runs back in because there's this fog creeping in, and along with the fog comes like all this, I don't know, bad news and bad luck and whatnot. Okay, good. All the bad juju. He runs in and he goes, there's something in the fog. I go, that's from The Mist. There's something in The Mist. Yeah, movie that's still being referenced today.

But yeah, that's not what we're here to talk about, although I'm sure we're going to get into some of that. But we're here to talk about the UFO slash UAP phenomenon and the fact that you sent me, and I guess an early advanced copy of your new book, The WatchGuard.

Thomas Jane (4:49)

Well, I know you're a reader. You know, and it has, I've written an account of something that happened to me in 2011, so.

Chris Ramsay (5:02)

Yeah.

Thomas Jane (5:04)

I wanted you to read that.

Chris Ramsay (5:05)

Well, I appreciate you sending that my way, and I did read it. I've been furiously reading it, not reading it in a furious manner, but trying to get through it before you got here, because I, you know, a lot of stuff going on, every night, you know, ripping through these pages. It's a really well-written book, and one of my favorite things about this book, I think, other than your personal experience, because you are by every metric an experiencer, you know, to those wondering what your connection to this is and how you got into that, maybe we'll get into that a bit later, but you are an experiencer.
