Patrick discusses Ben Rich, former director of Lockheed Martin Skunkworks.
Meet Ben Rich - presenter, meteorologist and journalist. Ben can't remember when he didn't love the weather. Growing up in south-west England meant from a young age he understood how quickly the weather could change. He says his mother tells him he was obsessed with the time and maps and so broadcasting the weather seemed like the only road for Ben. Ben worked through the record breaking heat in the UK where 40 degrees Celsius made the headlines. He says it was a profound moment that impacted him emotionally as the reality of a changing climate is now more evident than ever in weather broadcasts. The discussion of climate change is an important one and Ben says that engaging with all types of audience is so important in communicating the reality of climate change and simply telling someone ‘you're wrong is not the answer'. Listen on to hear a beautiful discussion on all things weather and how we move on communicating climate change in the news. You can also learn a little more about Ben's favourite cloud and who he would take to dinner and why the only option for him would be a cocktail on a beach.

SHOW NOTES: TOM BURBAGE: BIO: https://www.usna.edu/LeadershipConference/Archive/2012/Panelist-Burbage.php BOOK: F-35: The Inside Story of the Lightning II, by Tom Burbage, et.al. Book teaser: The inside story of the most expensive and controversial military program in history, as told by those who lived it.The F-35 has changed allied combat warfare. But by the time it's completed, it will cost more than the Manhattan Project and the B-2 Stealth Bomber. It has been subject to the most aggressive cyberattacks in history from China, Russia, North Korea, and others. Its stealth technology required nearly 9 million lines of code; NASA's Curiosity Mars rover required 2.5 million. And it was this close to failure.F-35 is the only inside look at the most advanced aircraft in the world and the historic project that built it, as told by those who were intimately involved in its design, testing, and production. Based on the authors' personal experience and over 100+ interviews, F-35 pulls back the curtain on one of the most heavily criticized government programs in history from start to finish: the dramatic flights that won Lockheed Martin the contract over Boeing; the debates and decisions over capabilities; feats of software, hardware, and aeronautical engineering that made it possible; how the project survived the Nunn-McCurdy breach; the conflicts among all three branches of the U.S. military, between the eight other allied nation partners, and against spy elements from enemies.For readers of Skunk Works by Ben Rich and The Making of the Atomic Bomb by Richard Rhodes, F-35 will pique the interest of airplane enthusiasts, defense industry insiders, military history aficionados, political junkies, and general nonfiction readers.

Saudi Arabia has attracted international attention with one diplomatic initiative after another – normalization with Iran, peace talks with the Yemeni Houthis, efforts to broker a ceasefire in Sudan, and hosting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during an Arab League Summit, etc. Most recently, Saudi Arabia hosted senior officials from dozens of countries for a summit on peace talks over Ukraine. Some people say things are changing in the Saudi foreign policy, with Riyadh, as an ally of Washington, setting its own agenda and balancing between global players to maximize its own gains. We take a look at Saudi Arabia's perceived pursuit of strategic autonomy. Host Ding Heng is joined by Greg Barton, Professor of Global Islamic Politics at Deakin University; Dr. Wang Jin, Middle East expert and Associate Professor with Northwest University in Xi'an, China; Dr. Ben Rich, Senior lecturer in International Relations and History at Curtin University.

Today we have special guest Jim Goodall to talk about what it was like being at the nations most secret military base Area 51! We will get into what Jim was worked on while in the Air National Guard with a TOP Secret Clearance & Learn about his trip to SpaceX and other Aviation museums. Jim also talks about how he met Bob Lazar before he worked at S-4 and after Lazar left S-4 He went asking questions about Lazar, only to be told to stop looking!. With that being said, Strap On Those Seat Belts, Were going for a Ride!! JIM'S BIO: As an 18-year-old Airman Second Class in the Air Force (name of therank was changed for PC reasons). I was sent TDY (Temporary Duty) to Edwards AFB to install and maintain their ground base telemetry system for three Category One testing programs. The first two were public knowledge: the YC-141 Lockheed Starlifter and the North American Aviation XB-70 Valkyrie. The third was a classified program. That program was Kelly Johnson's ultimate interceptor, the Mach 3+ YF-12A Blackbird. My passion was now cast in stone. On March 10, 1964, at approximately 1515 hrs (3:15 PM), I saw what was to change my life forever. On the XB-70 test pad was what I first thought was the North American Aviation X-15 rocket plane, but the people were way too small. Much to my amazement, I had my first glimpse of Kelly's incredible Mach 3+ Blackbird, the YF-12A, in full afterburners. I've never been the same! In the spring of 1968, via the US Postal Service, I formally asked Lockheed, the United States Air Force, the Department of Defense and the Central Intelligence Agency for unclassified photos of the of the SR- 71 on the ground or in the air. I was willing to pay the published rate for color 8x10s. I was turned down and never received any of the photos I had requested. Had the Air Force, Lockheed, DoD and the CIA honored my photo requests in 1968, I would have been happy to just move along. But, as with all things government, their unofficial “official” policy was to not cooperate; so, I started digging, the more I dug, the more I discovered. The more I discovered the deeper I dug. I would not be where I am today, in the field of spooky programs, if our government had given me what I wanted in 1968. I would have remained happy, and my name would never have been associated with Area 51, the Blackbirds, the F-117 or the Skunk Works. And the late Ben Rich, former President of the Skunk Works, and I would never have been friends.

The Arctic is warming four times faster than the global average temperature. Ice caps are melting which are forcing the indigenous Innuit community living around the Northwest passage to change their way of life. Polar bears and wildlife are losing their habitats and the ability to hunt. Further south, Middle Eastern countries are facing temperatures above 50 Celsius more regularly. We speak to people living in these rapidly warming parts of the world and find out why their countries are warming faster than others. We also find out why the change to an El Niño weather pattern later this year might make things even hotter in some parts of the world. Presenters Sophie Eastaugh and Luke Jones are joined by: Carlo Buontempo, from Copernicus, the European Union's Earth Observation Programme Kenzie Azmi, Greenpeace Middle East Campaigner Essa Ramadan, Meteorologist and Weatherman in Kuwait Reporter: Mark Stratton in the Arctic Plus an interview with Dr Wenju Cai from Southern Hemisphere Oceans Research and Ben Rich from the BBC Weather Centre Email us: theclimatequestion@bbc.com Production Team: Producer: Natasha Fernandes Production coordinators: Helena Warwick-Cross and Siobhan Reed Series Producer: Alex Lewis Editor: Emma Rippon Sound Engineer: Neil Churchill

The last few years have seen dramatic growth in the popularity of these extremist groups. How will they affect society in the future?In this episode, Jessica is joined by Doctors Ben Rich and Eva Bujalka, Co-directors of the Curtin Extremism Research Network (CERN). Together, they explain how these three different groups share some commonalities, as they are emblematic of growth in social media use, salad bar ideologies and red pill philosophy. They also address why it is problematic to brand people from these groups as “violent” when most are nonviolent and predict whether these groups are here to stay or if new extremist groups will take their place.CERN is a new research network based in Western Australia that is investigating extremism-related challenges in the developed world.

Despite living in a global age, the rise of political extremism reflects a world that has never been more divided – we only need to look at the storming of the US Capitol to see the great rift that exists between the ‘left' and ‘right'. How did we get here, and where to next? In this episode, Amelia is joined by Dr Ben Rich and Michael Wieteska from the Curtin School of Media, Creative Arts and Social Inquiry. They unpack what makes someone a political extremist and explore the rising appeal of political extremist groups. They also discuss some of the defining characteristics of the left and right, and the problems that occur when we solely label ourselves as one or the other.

Who stopped Sydney Powell from becoming special counsel? Did Trump verbally appoint her? Why is January 6 2021 so important? How is The White House controlled? Ted goes into 20 minute rant on these topics. NASA scientists say teleportation is real. Who was Ben Rich? What were his quotes about ET? Black pastors stand against shot! German scientists say no treatment if you refuse shot. Plus much much more. This is another intense must listen broadcast!
In this week's show Arnold Roth, father of teenage terror victim Malki, on the BBC's decision to give a platform to his daughter's killer, Ben Rich on the rebirth of Jewish life in York and the newspaper review with Richard Ferrer and Brigit Grant.
Listen in as we discuss the history of Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works and it's second director Ben Rich. Ben Rich worked on top secret projects ranging from the U-2 spy plane to the F-117 stealth fighter for which he headed the project. Rich who died in 1995 is widely reported to have said that 'we have the ability to take E.T. home' and that 'interstellar travel worked like ESP as time and space are connected at all points'. We examine both of those statements in context. Did Ben Rich offer UFO disclosure? Was Skunk Works back engineering UFO's? Tune in and decide for yourself. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
For decades, the world has been on a trajectory of rising globalisation with cross-border flows of trade, investment, data, ideas, technology and people. But recent global events point to a trend that's at odds with that narrative. The election of nationalist leaders in many powerful countries; Brexit and the subsequent weakening of the EU; and COVID-induced territorialism have all contributed to a sense of ‘us vs them'. David is joined by Curtin University academics Dr Donna Butorac and Dr Ben Rich to discuss whether we're witnessing a ‘de-globalisation' that could impact our ability to solve global problems like climate change and food security.Are we retreating behind borders, and if so, how did we get here?

In 1190 one of the darkest events in York’s history took place at the site of Clifford's Tower. Trapped by an angry and violent mob, the city's entire Jewish community, who were taking refuge inside York Castle’s tower, were confronted with the impossible decision of either taking their own lives or facing the mob outside, and certain death at their hands. In this episode Josie Long visits Clifford's Tower in York and meets curators Jeremy Ashbee and Sally Dixon-Smith to hear the story of the medieval massacre of the Jews and to try to understand how and why such a tragic event took place. Also speaking to members of the York Liberal Jewish Community, Josie explores the modern parallels that can be drawn from this dark chapter in York's history and how local Jewish communities reflect on it today.

The Jewish community in York can be traced to before the Massacre at Clifford's Tower in 1190. In its latest incarnation a resurgent Liberal community is attracting more Jews to live in the city. Ed Horwich finds out more about this growing community from Ben Rich. jscn.org.uk facebook.com/jscnuk/
Interview starts 36:40 Grant Cameron is back in Grimerica to chat about the latest in his interest in UFO’s and Consciousness. Alex Tsakiris, host of Skeptiko joins us as well to ask Grant some difficult questions. We chat about the definition of “downloads”, how everything is consciousness, the difference if any between good and evil if any, the NYT UFO article, and the significance of spiritual practices in this context. We also get quite deep into a bit of a debate about advanced technology - if there is a secret space program, Ben Rich and Skunkworks, the drip drip drip of slow disclosure and whether the deep state is using this as a tool in their battle. What about the Black Triangles, who or what is piloting those. Can it all just be consciousness? http://beyondpresidentialufo.com/ http://www.presidentialufo.com/old_site/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2-HvGdV4xou1Q0G1Ks1_NQ http://skeptiko.com/ In the Intro we talk about the live stream, youtube, support, the new website, and a few little listener synchro’s. And of course a couple great UFO quotes of the week. We solicit advice for anyone back east that knows a good acupuncturist for a friend of the show, who’s dad has fluid in the lungs.

Background: While having lunch near the Los Alamos National Laboratory one day with the likes of Edward Teller, "father of the nuclear bomb" Nobel Prize winning physicist Enrico Fermi wondered out loud (after the topic of recent UFO sightings came up) "Where is everybody?" Basically what he meant was, if the universe is so seemingly infinite and old, and it's mathematically probable that other star systems have developed intelligent life like ours has, and it's also theoretically possible that an alien civilization with tens or even hundreds of thousands of years of technological advancement could have made it to our galaxy by now, even with sub-lightspeed travel, why haven't we seen any aliens yet? Tonight, in one of our more conversational shows, we take a broad look at the paradox that bears his name. By the way, supposed UFO sightings are commonly reported around atomic activities. Tonight's Quote: “It is surely unreasonable to credit that only one small star in the immensity of the universe is capable of developing and supporting intelligent life. But we shall not get to them and they will not come to us.”― P.D.
