Did Hollywood Know? Bryce Zabel & Brent Friedman on UFO Disclosure
Bryce Zabel returns to the podcast and Brent Friedman makes his first appearance as we discuss their new show, Sound, Light, Frequency, along with Dark Skies, Hollywood, disclosure, and the long-running question of whether entertainment has helped shape public perception of the UFO topic. In this conversation, we get into Brent’s early experience of being briefed by a figure connected to the Reagan administration, the mysterious approaches made to Bryce and Brent around Dark Skies, whether similar quiet conversations are still happening today, and how both men now view the state of UFO disclosure in 2026. We also discuss the idea of a government-Hollywood relationship, the role film and television may play in preparing the public, and where the line between fiction and reality may be starting to blur.
