- Hello, and welcome to another edition
of Buzzfeed Unsolved Postmortem,
a show where we answer your
most pressing questions
about the most recent
episode of Buzzfeed Unsolved,
which was the Pentagon UFO files.
All the questions we're answering
today came from you guys
via our Buzzfeed Unsolved Facebook page,
and our Buzzfeed Unsolved Instagram page,
as well as on the video directly on BUN.
- BUN, make sure you're subscribed.
- Okay.
- Ooh, feels like we're home.
We had our vision episode, and
then we had our live episode.
- Yeah, so it really
did feel like we weren't
in our wheelhouse, and now
we're back at home base,
we're in the war room.
- Yeah.
- And, we can be ourselves.
- Classic meat and
potatoes BUN right here.
- Right back to the old boilerplate.
- Yeah.
We're talking about aliens this week.
It's fun.
- Yeah, it is fun.
- 'Cause it's something we can agree on.
- Well, we don't really agree on it.
We agree on it in the smallest sense
that you can agree on something, yeah.
Yeah, let's move into it.
- Gramtown, Marianna.s13,
how do you guys make
terrifying things so funny, lol?
Well, I wonder if she
was commenting directly
on this episode, but, do
you find aliens scary?
- Yes.
- You do?
- Well, I can.
I could find them scary in
the sense of Alien, like the--
- Okay, sure.
- The Ridley Scott film.
- Like a Xenomorph, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Or, I could find them
touching, like in the sense
of E.T., where they have
a beautiful relationship.
- The creepy little, yeah.
Elliot.
- I'll be right here.
- Welcome to our new
segment, say it with me.
Scary or Not Scary?
- Scary or Not Scary?
Lightening round, here we go.
- Okay.
- Alien.
- Scary.
- Alien 2.
- Scary.
- Alien 3.
- Ah scary.
There's a dog.
- Avatar.
- Not scary.
- E.T.
- Not scary.
- Predator.
- Scary.
- The Thing.
- Scary.
- I'm running out.
- Come on.
Lilo and Stitch.
- Lilo and Stitch.
- Haven't seen it.
- What?
- I know.
- Go watch Lilo and Stitch
right now, right now.
- You know, Scary or Not Scary ends
with me watching Lilo and Stitch.
So, now it's on to our next question.
Go watch it now?
- Go watch the film.
- Wow, what a film.
- It's good right?
- It's so good.
Not scary.
(laughing)
YouTube.
- Tubetown.
Josh Crow, do you believe
full disclosure is,
I believe he meant to say imminent here,
and if so, how will it change
the global community, if at all?
- Now, by that he means, at some point
the government will say, here it is.
- Here's the skinny.
- They're real.
- Here's the full rub
and all those things.
- We got 'em.
- Yeah.
- We're gonna bring 'em on
a train through your town.
You can throw peanuts at 'em.
They're gonna be at Coachella this year.
Headlining at Coachella,
a bunch of terrified aliens in a cage.
- Or they're not, they actually
have like alien instruments,
and they just rip.
- Yeah, but like they're
very talented musicians,
but it's alien music
so it just sounds like.
(silly music)
- Yeah, and it's great though.
And, everyone's like really feeling it.
And, then they get super popular.
And then, over time they get, you know,
like addicted to drugs
and the band breaks up.
And, then there's like a 10 year period,
and they're like, we should
get the band back together.
- Yeah, yeah.
- And then the band
gets back together, and then
they're like a band again.
- But, like some of 'em
left so there's just like
a session of jazz musicians in the band.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- It's like, what's that guy doing?
So, yeah, I think it's imminent.
- Yeah.
- And, that's what's going to happen.
- Of course it would change the community.
Would there be a whole new
like arena of commerce?
In terms of like alien
prep, in case they come.
Stores would be called.
- Oh maybe, yeah.
- Like, would you, would we
all start stocking up on stuff?
Like, would we all have like a panic room?
- Well, I guess you'd wanna find out,
like me, I wouldn't change my life at all.
I'd still be, you know, doing my thing.
- Ooh, here's a dark thought.
- Oh.
- I actually think that
if it was full disclosure,
it could help mankind
quite a bit because--
- Unify us, like at the end of Watchmen?
- It would unify us, it would make us all
be a unified front because
we now have a common enemy.
- Do you think it would do that,
or do you think it
would make things worse?
Would people be like, well,
you know, knowing the...
- Well, this is also a dark thought,
but I think the aliens
would need to come down
and murder a couple people.
Maybe, like one in every country.
If aliens, if full
disclosure actually happened,
and it was revealed that there was maybe
an imminent threat coming
towards all of humanity.
- Yeah.
- I think we would be forced
to put our squabbling aside,
and just band together for a little bit.
And, then once the threat was eliminated
we'd all go back to killing each other.
But, like, I just think
that would actually,
maybe be a good thing.
- Go back to Gramtown now,
here's from Oxenfree_ollie,
for postmortem, uh, yeah
Shane, do you ever think
you'd take Ryan to a priest to be blessed
or something to make Ricky skip town?
Not gonna lie, the bit
mildly creeps me out.
- How's Ricky Goldsworth?
- Who's Ricky Goldsworth?
(laughing)
- [Woman] How is he?
- Maybe think about your
questions a little bit more.
- I mean, I just pick whatever I pick.
I just, it's on the Instagram account.
So, I just scrolled through.
- Is that what you did?
- Yeah, I just copied
the text and pasted it.
- What were you thinking in your head
when you picked this question?
- I don't know man.
What's it to you?
- What's it to me?
- Yeah.
See this, I'm standing up to him.
This is what we gotta do everybody.
You can't keep taking it like this,
otherwise it's gonna make him stronger.
Yeah, see, he's back.
Good old Ryan's back.
- I'm back, I'm back all right.
- What the fuck?
(creepy laughing)
Jesus Christ.
Well, I think we've made a breakthrough
here today, Oxenfree_ollie.
All right buddy, hey
yeah, oh, you're back.
- What happened?
- You need a blanket?
Can we get one of those weird
tinfoil blankets over here?
Maybe some crackers.
- What happened?
- Oh boy, yeah.
Weird bit, weird bit.
Well, I think we should take
it back over to YouTube.
- Yeah, yeah, let's go back to YouTube.
Steggie says, assuming these
encounters are alien ships,
which they are but anyway,
why do you think they came to earth?
For research on humans,
on other technologies?
- If they're coming to earth, they're not,
they don't give a shit
about our technology, right?
- I think it's purely a
probing exercise, right?
- Yeah, yeah.
- Probing in the military sense.
- Yeah, sure.
So, they could be--
- Probing, a reconnaissance thing.
- Studying us.
- They wanna evaluate the situation,
see how much of a threat we are.
- Yeah.
- That's what I would
assume they would be doing
because there's no other
reason why I could see.
I mean, I guess they could be
like an exploratory exercise
where they're just purely
out there for science.
Steven Hawking did say,
and I agree with this,
if aliens ever did come
and we do consider them
more intelligent than us,
it's not gonna be good.
I can't imagine that.
- I love that, Steven
Hawking's basically like,
have you guys seen Predator?
We'll go to Gramtown, this is from
Dramatic_Doctrine, Fortnite.
(laughing)
- It's pretty funny.
Good stuff, good stuff.
Let's move on.
- Thanks for your question man.
- Do you think like after he did that,
he just dabbed 8,000 times?
Let's go to Facebook, Jennifer Chin,
do you think maybe it is
human but from the future?
Time travel.
Maybe that could be something to touch on
since we're already
doing ghosts and aliens.
- Love this, love it.
That's fun.
- So, she's saying the ships are--
- Are from the future.
- Yeah.
Hm, yeah, yeah.
I mean that would make sense why
they would be around, right?
Because like, it is hard for me to fathom
why aliens would just cruise.
- Yeah.
- And, fly around, and like.
If they don't want us
to know they're there,
why are they just cruising around?
- But, it does make sense
if this is far enough
in the future that we have the technology
to travel back in time, we've obviously
probably got some laws in
place about time travel.
Maybe we're a little better as a society.
We don't wanna mess with
the fabric of the universe.
So, maybe when they do come
back to observe the past
they don't want it to be known.
- But--
- Is that me?
- But, then they're cruising around?
See, that still doesn't make sense to me.
- They're cruising around
as secretly as they can.
- That's--
- You know?
- Okay, that's fair.
I mean like, obviously
they can't do anything,
that's why they're just observing.
- Right.
- Because the butterfly effect.
But, then again, just even if
you really wanna go into that area--
- I know, yeah, coming back at all.
- Yeah.
- It's a big mess.
- Even them flying through the atmosphere.
- Yeah.
- Is sending ripples.
Yeah, I love the idea.
I actually love the idea of somebody
inventing a time machine to go forward
to see our advancement, and they go
like a thousand years into the future
and it's the exact same.
And, they're just like,
is this thing working?
Like, going back into the machine,
like let me check the dial.
No, I'm here, what the hell's going on?
- There was like one
new model of the iPhone.
- Like he does it in the
middle of the street,
and he's like, I guess the
McDonald's got a little bigger.
- Yeah, we kinda stopped.
We just kinda stopped.
- We're just like it's
enough, it's enough.
- Yeah.
- Okay.
- From Gramtown, this is
from Timhasaninstagram.
Congrats Tim.
- Good stuff Tim.
- Hey Ryan, this one's for you.
- Yeah.
- 'Cause they said your name.
- Yeah, I get it.
- What do you think of theories that UFO's
may actually be paranormal in origin?
There are purported UFO summoners
who say they can make aliens
appear through meditation,
not unlike a psychic medium.
#GhostAliens.
And, he doesn't even have to say it,
but I'll throw on a #Boogara.
- He's not saying this is true,
he was just saying it as a funny little--
- That just sounds like a Boogara.
- It's a funny thing.
- That sounds like a Boogara to me.
- Is it, yeah sure.
- No?
- I mean, this sounds pretty ridiculous.
I'm gonna say that, I'm
gonna say that up front.
I haven't looked into this at all.
- You've never heard
of anything like this?
- No, have you?
- No, that's why I put it on here
'cause it really caught my eye.
- This seems like something he made up.
But, maybe he didn't.
Maybe you didn't Tim, I haven't done
my due diligence in
searching out this info.
- It seems like something--
- Of UFO summoners.
- I guess what I'm picturing
here is like a cult,
or like people in robes
standing in a circle
in a field somewhere.
- What I could picture,
and this is mainly based
off of many alien plots in movies.
- Yeah.
- But, there's usually one person that,
for whatever reason, they
have some kind of link
with the aliens, maybe they'd been
abducted in the first act.
And, they could kinda sense
when they're around now.
They have like a preternatural
ability to sense aliens.
- Your Randy Quaid type.
- Exactly.
So, I could see that being the case here.
- Um hm.
- I don't like to
immediately abandon something
at face value, but I'm
gonna abandon this one.
- Well, you know, Tim just seems like
he's interested in talking about it.
I don't think he's fully behind it.
- I don't think he is either.
But that's my opinion.
- So, thanks for putting
that in front of us Tim.
- Yeah, good stuff.
Thanks for slapping that on the desk.
- Yeah, yeah.
Hey Ryan, what do we
got coming up this week?
- This week we have an investigation
that I've been looking forward to for,
I mean, frankly my whole life.
Just, maybe not even in an investigation,
I just wanted to visit this location
because I'm a big fan of history.
And, this place's history in particular
has always interested me.
It's been featured in a lot of movies.
So, it's a fun ep.
And, if you're a fan of us
dressing up like idiots,
you're gonna be pleased because
we dress up like idiots, so.
- Yeah.
- Yeah, it's a fun ep.
- It's a very unique location.
- And, it also inches us ever closer
to the finale, which I'm very excited for.
- The finale's a wild ride.
- That does it for this episode
of Buzzfeed Unsolved Postmortem.
Make sure you watch the
episode this Friday,
and then send in your questions to
the Buzzfeed Unsolved Facebook page,
the Buzzfeed Unsolved Instagram page,
or comment directly on the video on BUN.
And, maybe you'll be in the next episode
of Buzzfeed Unsolved Postmortem.
- We'll see.
Fortnite baby.
(spooky music)
- Hey everybody, if you're
a fan of Buzzfeed Unsolved,
