I'd say two eggheads where one doesn't know anything about ufology, and is the purveyor of questionable ideologies IMHO, and the other is an actual member of the invisible college in the truest sense. I can't remember if he was James or Tyler in American Cosmic, but what we learned in Pasulka's book is that there is real science being applied to UFO's and that they are identified as products of a non-human intelligence.Dr. Garry Nolan Interviewed by Jordan Peterson
Two eggheads who know nothing about ufology pretending to be experts.

@Randall I'm not sure about the requirements you've outlined for being labeled a "real ufologist". I don't think Ufological history is the defining feature, nor a necessary prerequisite.
What those who have studied the phenomena should be excited about is the fact that real scientists, post James McDonald, are actually investing real time and money into studying Ufological artifacts in real labs, and not just more talking and musing about its history on podcasts.
I really don't care about which acronym they use; that's quite secondary.
But I am interested in the isotopic ratios, materials construction and effects on humans, as that's actually establishing physical proof of a nonhuman actor here on earth. What we call it is entirely irrelevant.
Btw transgenderism, like homosexuality and heterosexuality is a biological fact and not an ideology.
It's ideology that has always gotten in the way of human sexuality. We would be a much happier species with a lot less violence if it wasn't for ideology and who deserves to control the reproductive rights of women or control who can love whom.
Similarly, I would say what has always muddied the field of ufology has also been ideology and making it the subject of debate i.e.who knows its history, is it nuts and bolts or paranormal, as opposed to studying the facts and material evidence.
