No More Waiting for Disclosure—Mitch Randall’s Vision for Citizen-Science Driven UAP Detection
In this episode of Visitors, Kelly talks with Acendant AI’s Mitch Randall, a renowned scientist and radar technology expert, about his ambitious project, Sky Watch. Mitch shares how he plans to empower citizen scientists to detect and study unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) using a $500 radar detection device.
They explore why accurate and independently verified data is crucial to understanding UFO sightings, what it will take to bring affordable detection tools to the public, and how groups like the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies and the Galileo Project are advancing credible research.
Mitch also discusses the role of the National UFO Reporting Center, the challenges of fundraising, and the fascinating potential for this revolutionary new approach to disclosure.👉 Learn more about Sky Watch and support the project: https://ascendantai.com/skywatch

In this episode, Sam visits with filmmaker Dean Alioto about his brand new film, “The Alien Perspective: Part II,” the world premiere of which we caught and heartily enjoyed at Contact in the Desert. Also discussed was another Frightday favorite, Alioto’s 1989 video classic and progenitor of the entire found-footage genre, “UFO Abduction,” aka “The McPherson Tape.”

This week Byron, Sam, and Kelly return from Contact in the Desert—the sprawling, sun-drenched gathering in Palm Springs where the leading minds (and hearts) in UAP research, consciousness studies, and high strangeness come together to explore the unknown.
Helmed by Captain Ron Janix and his team, this annual conference defies easy categorization: part symposium, part spiritual retreat, part carnival of the anomalous. But what stood out most in our first year there? The human connection—unexpected, unguarded, and deeply kind. Nearly every conversation was marked not by shouting or smug certainty, but by curiosity, generosity, and mutual respect.

Kelly wanted to call this, "Captain's CliffsNotes", but I (Byron) thought that was too silly. Either way, we're here. Or there. Or almost there. There being the world's largest UFO/UAP conference, "Contact in the Desert". In an attempt to make this more tolerable, Kelly shares knowledge of the current, hot button topics in Ufology.
-
Ahead of our first pilgrimage to Contact in the Desert, a world-renowned UFO and UAP conference held annually in the Coachella Valley of California, we were lucky enough to sit down with it's co-owner & host, Captain Ron Janix (Beyond Contact). Kelly and Ron discuss CITD's evolution, what we should expect this year, the current state of the community, as well as coincidences.
