The Origins of Disclosure: Crashes, Archives, and Secrets with Leslie Kean
Nov 24, 2025
Investigative journalist Leslie Kean joins Peter Skafish on the Sol Forum for an in-depth conversation on how today’s UAP “disclosure era” was built over decades of quiet work in government, media, and civil society.
Kean traces a path from the French COMETA report and early coverage in the Boston Globe to years of engagement with foreign UAP offices, John Podesta’s FOIA push, and a landmark lawsuit against NASA over the Kecksburg crash case, and more.
