00:00:01
hello and welcome I'm Jeffrey mishlove this is a very unusual and exciting program for me I'm talking about the launch of a feature film documentary about the life of Ted ens the PK man the fellow about whom I wrote a book over 20 years ago called the PK man a true story of Mind Over Matter and so without further Ado here here is a first look at a teaser for our documentary in progress on the life of Ted Owens PK Man Battle of the psychics the October 22nd 1972 edition of the national Tattler T Owens he claims he can control


00:00:56
all those things but he can't control his mouth too well fella a friend of mine in Chicago saw an article today in which you say some nasty things about me in the Tattler you even have the gall to insinuate as he explained it long distance that I might be a fake and a phony so you can make some predictions big deal I can make predictions that come true and mind you we are speaking of documented before the fact action I was working at my window about a week ago when Ted Owens who calls himself PK


00:01:39
man came to my window Mr Ramos he said my special ESP ability and Powerful mind have picked up the thoughts of some bad people who are planning to bomb a post office here in Norfork they plan to bomb it on Saturday or Sunday last Saturday a bomb was thrown at the post office building and the FBI have entered the case I swear that this is a true and accurate statement so there can be no argument Ted Owens a World War II veteran of the Pacific Theater who fell over a rail and spontaneously levitated um Yes you heard that right


00:02:19
reached out for help to pioneering parapsychologist JB Ry at Duke University where he became his research assistant at various points in his life a bullwhip artist a carnival knifethrower Judo Master genius member of Mena executive oil dowser professional typist Summoner of UFOs and self-professed master of Mind Over Matter that could control nature Itself by the force of psychokinesis or PK and he would be the greatest teller of tall tales in history if not for the evidence 168 different demonstrations he


00:03:11
performed over a period of 20 years 2third of them worked out the way he said they would for events that by chance alone you wouldn't expect like a volcano so I can control exploding volcanoes control the weather large scale psycho kinetic events rain and snow and so on and the only snowstorm that I can recall ever happening is the one that was sent to us by Ted o also control military forces heal people given up by doctors for dead control radar installations control pro football basketball and on


00:03:59
and on and so why do you dare football players to come to Kate Charles and punch me in the nose if he insists on taking credit for causing injuries he should be jailed for assault with a deadly weapon L than half the Eagles players could not return it all all the young linebackers were injured and uh also predict that he could make some UFOs appear and even that happened published in the newspapers he creates what he calls a picture a PK map an image of what he wants to have happen he focuses on that


00:04:40
image he sends the image telepathically to Invisible aliens hovering above the Earth in a giant UFO he calls the space intelligences they sit in front of a big screen and they make all of these things happen mine is perhaps The Greatest Story in the entire history of the world UFO entities have given me an advanced brain the brain of future men now they want to see what I will do with it and whether I will misuse my Powers so far I have not he called himself the PK man lightning is my specialty


00:05:30
[Music] I'm particularly excited to bring on board for this project the filmmaker Lance mongia welcome Lance Hey Jeffrey thank you so much for for having me on the show and uh I'm really excited about this project and we've been talking about it a long time so it's an honor for me to be here and tell the world about what we're doing well let's begin by talking a little bit about your background I know I first met you many years ago when you were working with Russell tar on a wonderful feature documentary very successful one called


00:06:12
thirde eyye spies if you had an ability to be able to remotely perceive stuff any place in the world that could be an extraordinary intelligence Source we found that many individuals are able to accurately describe what's going on in dist locations are you saying that the work you've been doing is classified it was a research facility that was all that we were going to tell them the Russians have been spending millions of dollars investigating so-called ESP psychic spies almost a psychic arms race here is


00:06:59
there any real application to this I think remote viewing has been demonstrated over the 20 years of work that's been sponsored by the government producing crucial and vital intelligence to the NSA CIA DEA and the Secret Service I began to feel frightened the KGB did a me what's really going on here state sponsored assassination attent the CIA was lying they wanted to kill the program a storm brewing this is real I say no more secrets let this information out one of the reasons I've been eager to work with you on this


00:07:44
project is because unlike almost every other filmmaker I've ever encountered you have a sensitivity for this extraordinary subject matter I'm honored to to be involved and to have you say that about me because you know it's tumbling you know coming from somebody who's been doing this as long as you have and I've always been interested in the PK man I remember the first time that we actually met was when I was shooting Third Eye Spies you started telling the story of PK man and it was so amazing and yet at the same


00:08:18
time so unbelievable the this story of Ted Owens that could change the weather and could do all of these psychokinetic things and cause UFOs to appear and then you said oh and by the way I've got hours of of Ted audio but you you have to take it very seriously because it could really change your your whole world viw and and how you see things and I found that so fascinating well I think it's important to let our viewers understand that we're endeavoring to raise some funds to launch this project you and I have


00:08:48
already been working on it for a couple of years so we're we're going to do a a crowdfunding page and we'll put the link let's put the link down below and then we'll it flash through the rest of the video or at least be a link that that that people can click on and I am a small company my my company waking Universe films has produced several UFO documentaries plus third ey spies and over the last uh few years and we're very independent the evolving technologies that that exist out there in the world


00:09:21
have allowed us to be even more independent and bigger in scale than we could have imagined even 5 years ago so so with this PK Man movie there's a lot of historical research that still needs to be done we need to be going to News archives and possibly purchasing news clips and things like that that we can't get anywhere else this is something that we need to really raise some money for too because there's a lot of material that material has to be professionally cleaned up and mixed because a lot of


00:09:52
the audio is older we want to interview some of the Contemporary researchers that are working today that demonstrate how what Owens was talking about in the 1970s has since been scientifically documented in a lab people like Dean Raiden animated reenactments of owens's Life uh based around his audio uh based around eyewitness testimony uh for things that occurred in his life and we want to show that in a animated style that is Cinematic and so we make this documentary a a truly cinematic production that that will beely its its


00:10:34
beginnings and and how we actually are making this and that's possible now because through my company we have been doing animated reenactments now since the pandemic for television for uh other documentaries and producing really top quality reenactments for these documentaries that that are on par with anything you would find in a major Studio because the technology has come so far and I'm not even talking about AI in the more recent stuff using tools like Unreal Engine and motion capture tools things


00:11:10
that you know we've really kind of set up our studio to do as you can see in the real which is some of these [Music] films and that really is the core of this is that the the project itself has a production quality a top-notch documentary think will compete with any other paranormal documentary that's ever been made and and beyond that paranormal aspect the story aspect of owens's life is so compelling because you he documented everything and you have preserved all of these documents so those are the types


00:11:51
of things that we really need to raise funding for but it was really when I showed up at your house and we started really going over the material you brought out these big boxes of archives these archives are just Decades of material about Owens documenting the phenomenon that he claims to have caused documenting witness testimonies a lot of them notorized and the FBI have entered the case I swear that this is a true and acccurate statement un told history completely Untold that so blow mind it just begs to


00:12:28
be shown to the world this is a project that I have been meaning to do since I first encountered Ted Owens in 1976 I worked with the man for 11 years until he died in 1987 and ever since then I have felt that this is a story that needs to be told it needs to be understood it some ways I feel that my career in Paris psychology has been epitomized by this particular research I hadn't been able to stop thinking about it since that first event where we actually got together and and you showed me just the


00:13:14
raw documents in his own handwriting you know which we can be showing here just so much great information and personality owns himself as a character he is the ultimate anti-hero it's like what if you gave all the power of a god to a guy who you would wouldn't trust to drive you down the street you know but and and who has these great grand plans and and uh way of speaking was was so there's such a dichotomy within his character and yet he was also This brilliant brilliant soul that that had so much passion for researching the


00:13:54
subject he was actually a very very serious researcher and I've waited too long over long for some cooperation from somebody waiting for some scientists somewhere to make an approach and in communication with all of the top scientists in peris psychology of the day including yourself and Russell and Hal POF who we've already interviewed for the film as a filmmaker I always find that it's not just the subject matter is the The credibility behind it from the personalities involved and and also just it makes it entertaining to


00:14:36
see such a colorful character he Larger than Life and yet at the same time his talents I think are the embodiment of the potential that exists within everyone UFO entities have given me an advanced brain the brain of future men now they want to see what I will do with it this is something that I feel so sympatica with you about the way we can look at as human beings uh the possibilities of of what we can possibly imagine or even what we can't imagine you know could it be possible could it be real if there's even a a


00:15:23
grain of of Truth within the Owen story then then the world it's time to know about it and and I remember the very first interview we did and I asked you uh off camera you know about PK man and I said hey would you be interested in doing something and and your response was well I wrote this book 20 years ago but it's it's uh the world wasn't really ready for it and now through my own journey in doing third eyye spies uh it changed my worldview completely and it and it showed me what evidence it actually exists for the


00:15:58
Primacy of consciousness and just how real the that the study of Consciousness is in terms of really superum uh Supernatural characteristics that Consciousness may have and that's really worthy of a serious conversation so we're not just talking about making a a mythical film about a guy who claims to do some things evidence shows in other areas from other researchers that some of the things that he is talking talked about could be very real and you've devoted your life to pursuing that and I want to


00:16:38
help you with that and I want to help get that information out to the world well it's important I think that in addition to your background in Paras pychology having produced thirde eyye spies you've also done several very important video documentaries concerned with UFOs which is another aspect of the Ted Owen story remote viewing to me was almost like a Gateway Drive into the Paranormal and and into the study of euphology and I've had the opportunity to work with a lot of the people who have been


00:17:14
on your show that they're interested in the subject like jacqu valet uh you know several others I uh after third ey spies I went on and I produced the phenomenon which was a very successful UFO documentary directed by James Fox I knew this was breaking news for the front page of the New York Times my gosh we need to accept that we are not alone in the universe the federal government all these years has covered up everything it's very very bad for our country there have been visitation crashed craft material recovered it was


00:17:58
not anything from this Earth all I could do is keep a mouth shut the public has right to 70 years of history about the UFO subject and rewriting and you know figuring out the the stories to tell and coming through interviews they all speak to the same message which is that there's a much larger human story and that this planet that we exist upon we're not only not separate from it but we also risk destroying it in a way that that has attracted attention side of ourselves in some way it's intriguing and and uh Owens was


00:18:38
about all of that decades before anyone else was even talking about it and now this the whole concept of UFO summoning is very common you know with the C5 stuff and with there's there's various people that claim to do it Owens was making those claims successfully and causing witnesses to see things in the sky based on his predictions or psychokinetic ability whatever decades before anyone else and so that's important I also by the way have just finished producing the program which was James Fox's followup to the phenomenon


00:19:15
what is being done to verify the assertion that the US government has spaceships of non-human intelligence in their possession that kind of Revelation unearths people's beliefs I we go to jail to say things that I've been exposed to in the [Music] program we are living in the Apex of timing when it comes to the world's understanding of what UFOs or now uaps are really about and they've been here a long time people have reported them and the government has been a lot more involved and interested than people tend


00:19:57
to give them credit for Congressional hearings the first in 50 years just over the last year it it's at a point where now we're not just interviewing Witnesses we're interviewing Senators we're interviewing a 37-year veteran of the Senate armed services committee you're telling me people have come forward claiming firsthand knowledge of craft of non-human origin that's correct the intelligence committee claims on certed not only that there have been crashes but there have and crash retrievals do we have the bodies of the


00:20:31
pilot so a lot of what Owens was claiming back then that people were looking at him sideways for are now main stream and I think that we really are on the verge of some very big disclosures that are going to change the way again that a lot of people look at the world you know take for example the largest airplane disaster in American history at Kennedy Airport in the 70s Ted Owens is flying ing into Kennedy Airport showing I'm the guy who could knock these airplanes out of the sky with psycho kesis and he's


00:21:08
bragging to the stewardesses when the plane right ahead of him is struck by lightning which is part of his trademark and crashed uh some of the most impressive incidents are the ones that happened by accident and this crash was one such incident he wasn't trying to hit the airplane ahead of him he was he was bragging about an article that had appeared in Saga magazine that showed an airplane being struck by lightning from a previous demonstration he had done which was also accidental he was trying


00:21:52
to it it did successfully produce strange visuals on a radar screen screen which which he claimed he could do and then subsequently airplanes were struck by lightning and downed in the Chesapeake Bay and in that was just one example of many of Owens either being entric involved or at the very least being at the absolute wrong place at the right time very much like the anti Forest Gump you know who throughout this entire period of history from like the 60s through the 80s he always tended to hit


00:22:34
the nail on the head of the worst possible thing that could occur you know I mean I keep thinking back to uh him trying to teach his young children how to do PK as they're overlooking Mount St Helens and he's trying to explain there's this GD pattern and you use it and this is how you create PK effects and then in that moment the volcano erupts and M St Helen's explodes the largest eruption in you know modern history and and he's like okay everybody back into the car you know and it's not that he intended to do


00:23:11
these things but again and again real effects and so those things need to be taken seriously and look at well macr psychokinesis which is what we're talking about is probably the most controvercial subject within the field of parapsychology even experience Paras ologists have a a lot of hesitation to confront this level of phenomena and I think the reason is because a mere 250 years ago here in the United States we were burning witches at the stake the the belief was the the paradig of the time was that witchcraft is real


00:23:56
and it's dangerous and and the Paradigm shifted so that today the major Paradigm is that witchcraft doesn't exist which is just as dangerous as as believing that it does exist you're right you're right and and we fear what we don't understand right and and I think even greater than fear is our own ego's desire not to be fooled we don't want to be fool we don't want to buy into something something that is bullpucky you know we we want to to know that that we are correct and and that it's all logical and it all makes


00:24:37
sense but what science real Cutting Edge science is showing us again and again is that it doesn't all make sense and that there's things about the way that reality is constructed that we still don't understand and yet we have this Dogma the Dogma was the big villain in Third Eye Spies the first time I met Russell targ I asked him who's the villain of the story who who was it that was really holding your work back and he said it was the Dogma it was the the religious and the scientific prejudice


00:25:08
against anything that people don't understand and if this is all fake then it's still a great story but if it's real if even a little bit real then this is the most important story that we could be focused on right now because it does show us the dangers and the opportunities of what's possible through the Human Condition and we see that things like Mass meditation can work Mass prayer works and and I don't say that as as a highly religious person I say that by looking at scientific studies and statistics of people who


00:25:46
have been healed by large groups of people who who will pray or or meditate for them like that we know that Consciousness has an effect in the world and is it possible that Ted Owens somehow tapped into that in such a major way and and then what does that really say about us it's very intriguing and I think it says a lot not only about Ted Owens who seems more than human but it says a lot about each and every one of us what if our conscious intent really does have a vote in how things play out in this world it it really is that


00:26:27
fundamental question of um are we helpless victims to our reality or are we the creators of our reality and and do we have some sort of say and pull in how in events in the broader World unfold and to me and I don't know the answer but I'm all about investigating it and it feels like I would rather live in a world where magic is possible well for me the the lesson of the Ted Owens case is that the youth universe itself is alive and each and every one of us is entangled with it with each other and


00:27:05
with the universe in the quantum sense of entanglement so we all have a measure of interaction and influence with the whole universe and what if that level of interaction with the universe is only dependent upon our ability to imagine it what if the power of the mind is that infinite it sounds far-fetched to say it but on the other hand we're seeing it proven again and again in Labs by people like Dean Raiden darl Ben Russell tar Hal put off a lot of these people over the years have shown you know just how


00:27:44
powerful the human mind and and the power of the superconscious can be can actually take out of thin air information about something you have absolutely no access to just using your mind remote why couldn't I do that by looking at a map and and trying to change the course of of a hurricane if if a person's mind was that attuned to it I don't know I don't know what the differences are well that was Ted Owen's main claim in fact he asked that someday we name it after him the Owens effect being that it's just as easy to


00:28:21
manipulate large scale phenomenon like hurricanes as as it is to deal with the the sort of microscopic phenomenon often shown in the parasytes back to that saying from Yoda you know in in Empire Strikes Back I always think back on Luke trying to lift the X-Wing out of the swamp Luke says it's just too difficult it's too big and Yoda I'll paraphrase says something like well that's just because you think it's too big you you think that it's too hard and that's why you fail always with you it cannot be done


00:29:00
let's take a look at one last excerpt from our upcoming documentary we'll be featuring more excerpts in future episodes and you can go to our crowdfunding page as well as Lance's YouTube page both linked below to find even more material there it's February 5th 1976 Pao Alto California all over the city residents look up to the sky and witness something [Music] extraordinary he said well I'm going to create a snowstorms of the like that you've never seen there in Northern California and it's going to snow like hell over this


00:29:49
next weekend and it'll be published in your newspaper your local newspaper will be such a big snowstorm that the papers will write about it because there' been nothing like there for 50 years January 25th 1976 to the scientists I know gentlemen it is time time to give you a demonstration to distract fear into your hearts I am not your ordinary Orthodox human inside the labs of Stanford Research Institute two of the cia's top scientists Russell tar and Hal putthoff watch stunned I've been in California now for


00:30:41
62 years in the only snowstorm the like to recall ever happening is the one that was sent to us by Ted o although was not known why we were doing it but it's generally known in the public that we're looking for people to come forward with examples of uh paranormal experiences we were contacted by Ted Owens who said that uh he had a lifetime of really remarkable experiences it brings all of these desparate interests together and I think a lot of people share those interests and are going to really get behind this


00:31:19
and hopefully share the excitement that we both have for this documentary and I would just encourage people if you can go to the crowdfunding website that will be linked below this video and there's going to be a lot of things that if you can help contribute to this project that we also can contribute to your understanding of it and and to be a participant with us in it we're going to be doing behind the scenes videos as we make the documentary and you'll you'll get access to that we're going to be


00:31:51
providing for instance say course that Ted Owens himself taught in what would you call it Jeffrey self-awareness you know in learning psychokinesis there are many different ways to couch what Ted Owens taught I took his training program myself and at the time he asked me what do you want to do with this kind of power and I said to him well I have no interest in controlling hurricanes or causing UFOs to manifest the way you do but what I'd like to do is to become a spokesperson To The World At Large about the realities of psychic


00:32:37
phenomena and esoteric ways of looking at the world and within about six months of taking the Ted Owens training program we launched the original thinking allowed television series and so I've been doing that I've been fulfilling that dream almost ever since and I think what it's really about ultimately is becoming the best version of yourself I tagline for my company waking Universe FMS is I'm another version of you and and it's all about the idea of human potential and and how we are all reflections of that same potential and


00:33:22
that really is the theme that that we want to get out of this whole story is what truly as possible if we can just imagine it and I'm very excited now many many decades later that we're at a point where we can tell the story to a large audience mine is perhaps the greatest story in the entire history of the world he called himself the PK man lightning is my specialty [Music]
