I'll third that. A very good show this past Sunday. I think Coppens has a fine balance of beliefs based on evidence and skepticism. I've already listened to it twice and know it'll take another couple listens to absorb it all. I almost feel like taking notes so I can look up some of the stuff he talked about. Maybe I should just get the book...
I'm confused. At 110:42 in the show, Gene says, "Parenthetically, do you believe Richard Hoagland?" Philip says no. My question is: believe Hoagland about what? Are you implying, Gene, that Hoagland said we didn't go to the Moon? If so, you need to read Dark Mission, brush up on your Hoagland and listen to some good Hoagland interviews such as the ones with Mel Fabregas. My goodness, Richard Hoagland will be the FIRST person to tell you that we went to the Moon. Working with CBS and NASA, after all, he had a front-row seat. What he'll also tell you, however, is that he believes NASA has withheld information for 42 years regarding why we went to the Sea of Tranquility and what Neil and Buzz saw there.
This isn't the first time Hoagland has received a subtle put-down by the Paracast crew. Rather than just make fun of the man, why don't you engage him? Invite him on the show . . . put out the red carpet for him. The best person to explain Richard Hoagland to you is Richard Hoagland. NASA is a military organization, they are hiding data from the American people and we all owe Hoagland and his Enterprise Mission associates (Mike Bara, Ken Johnston, et al.) a debt of gratitude for being the first group of researchers to point out that secrecy pervades NASA, an organization that was staffed, at its inception, by Paperclip Nazis.
In earlier Paracast episodes, comments have been made about Hoagland's fringe UFO ideas and theories. Again, these are comments made by individuals who don't read and don't know Hoagland. Hoagland has never written or lectured about UFOs. He specializes, rather, in studying the history of NASA and looking for ways to scientifically prove his theories about the Moon, Mars and other objects in the Solar System.

With Hoagland, the case for a city on Mars and artifacts on the Moon were compelling, but then it started to deviate into 'formulas of hyperphysics', and now a visit to his Enterprise mission website is an embarrassment. Every single anomaly caught by the cameras placed on Mars (surface or orbital) is interpreted as an ancient Martian iPad or whatever; likewise with Linda Howe's acceptance of the infamous CARET drone pics.
