- 0:02Speaker 1: a special bulletin from the Intercontinental Radio News.
- 0:05Speaker 2: On today's Warm I Got Bomb News. The drone drama.
- 0:12Speaker 3: Is not foreign to New Jersey because it was kind
- 0:17Speaker 3: of fictionalized in nineteen thirty eight with Orson Welles's War
- 0:23Speaker 3: of the Worlds.
- 0:25Speaker 1: And here is the latest bulletin from the Intercontinental Radio News, Toronto, Canada,
- 0:29Speaker 1: remorse of McMillan University reports observing a total of free
- 0:32Speaker 1: explosions on the planet Mars between the hours of seven
- 0:35Speaker 1: forty five pm and nine to twenty pm Eastern Standard times.
- 0:39Speaker 1: This confirms earlier reports received from American observatories. Now nearer
- 0:43Speaker 1: home comes a special bulletin from Trenton, New Jersey. It
- 0:47Speaker 1: is reported that at eight fifty pm, a huge flaming
- 0:49Speaker 1: object believed to be a meteorite, fell on a farm
- 0:52Speaker 1: in the neighborhood of Grover's Mill, New Jersey, twenty two
- 0:54Speaker 1: miles from Trenton. The flash in the sky was visible
- 0:57Speaker 1: within a radius of several hundred miles and the impact
- 1:00Speaker 1: was heard as far north as Elizabeth. We have dispatched
- 1:03Speaker 1: the Special Mobile Unit to the scene and we'll have
- 1:05Speaker 1: our commentator Carl Phillips give you a word picture of
- 1:08Speaker 1: the scene as soon as he can reach there from Princeton.
- 1:10Speaker 1: In the meantime, we take you to the Hotel Martinette
- 1:13Speaker 1: and Brooklyn, where Bobby Mallett and his orchestra are offering
- 1:16Speaker 1: a program of dance music.
- 1:24Speaker 4: The brilliance of Orson Wells to incorporate music with this
- 1:30Speaker 4: fake breaking news is brilliant. It's absolutely brilliant, and as
- 1:40Speaker 4: is music's playing.
- 1:45Speaker 2: We take you now to wait.
- 1:46Speaker 5: There's more new Jersey Dathan Katleman, but the Carl Phillips
- 1:55Speaker 5: again hot at the Wilmo's fine garlick mail new catat.
- 1:58Speaker 5: That's the path time myself may.
- 2:00Speaker 6: The eleven miles from Princeton in ten minutes.
- 2:02Speaker 2: Well, I hardly.
- 2:03Speaker 5: Know where it begins.
- 2:04Speaker 6: And paying for your word picture of the strange scene
- 2:06Speaker 6: before my eyes for something out of a modern Arabian night.
- 2:09Speaker 6: I just got here. I haven't had a chance to
- 2:12Speaker 6: look around.
- 2:13Speaker 1: Ja.
- 2:14Speaker 6: I guess that's it. Yes, I guess that's the thing
- 2:17Speaker 6: directly in front of me, half buried in a vast
- 2:20Speaker 6: piff must have struck with terrific force. The ground is
- 2:24Speaker 6: covered with splinters, of a tree. It must have struck
- 2:26Speaker 6: on its way down. But I can see the object itself.
- 2:30Speaker 6: Does it look very much like a meteor? At least
- 2:32Speaker 6: not the medias I've seen. It looks more like a
- 2:35Speaker 6: huge cylinder. As the diameter of what would you say,
- 2:39Speaker 6: Professor Pierson, for sure? What would you say? What's the
- 2:41Speaker 6: diameter of this? About thirty yards? The metal on the
- 2:45Speaker 6: sheath is well, I've never seen anything like it. The
- 2:47Speaker 6: color is sort of yellowish white.
- 2:49Speaker 2: It's curious.
- 2:50Speaker 6: Spectators now are pressing close to the object in spite
- 2:53Speaker 6: of the efforts of the police to keep them back.
- 2:56Speaker 3: Now, not only were there fake spectators, there were real
- 3:01Speaker 3: calls over one hundred thousand calls to CBS and orson
- 3:09Speaker 3: Wells from paniced listeners believing the Martian invasion was real. Well,
- 3:18Speaker 3: in the skies of New Jersey, a drone invasion has
- 3:22Speaker 3: taken place. And let me get that number. Because the
- 3:31Speaker 3: drone sightings.
- 3:34Speaker 2: Have been through the roof.
- 3:49Speaker 3: And more than twenty states have enacted laws against privacy
- 3:53Speaker 3: invasion by drones, by the way, and it's caused a
- 4:04Speaker 3: state of emergency in Jersey right.
- 4:06Speaker 2: Now as a matter of fact, But it hasn't stopped.
- 4:13Speaker 2: It's now eight days.
- 4:14Speaker 3: It's expanded, as I said, to Maryland in Connecticut and
- 4:18Speaker 3: New York, not New York City yet not in that
- 4:23Speaker 3: way anyway. There are always drones flying, but never like that.
- 4:32Speaker 3: And the spy balloon moment comes to mind because we
- 4:38Speaker 3: shut down that Chinese spy balloon. Drum suggests we should
- 4:42Speaker 3: shoot down these drones. And I suggest we don't lose
- 4:47Speaker 3: our cool like those that listened to the original Panic
- 5:01Speaker 3: in the skies that was the War of the worlds. Yes,
- 5:07Speaker 3: Orson Welles and HG. Wells who first wrote about that phenomena.
- 5:17Speaker 3: There is a real war in the skies and where
- 5:27Speaker 3: we're not. We're just as unsure as you guys write about.
- 5:36Speaker 3: And I feel like there's a phrase here that's on
- 5:38Speaker 3: the tip of my tongue, on the one that got network.
- 5:46Speaker 3: It's sort of like where rubber meets the road, where
- 5:50Speaker 3: fiction meets reality. And they better handle these drones in
- 5:57Speaker 3: a matter that's not gonna cause panic. Just get him
- 6:03Speaker 3: off for airspace, get him out of there. That's all
- 6:07Speaker 3: we're saying. I applaud New Jersey State Senator or actually
- 6:11Speaker 3: New Jersey Senator Andy Kim. He's out on a chase
- 6:17Speaker 3: against these drones. Somebody's watching us. But let's stay calm.
- 6:26Speaker 3: They want us to lose our cool. Let's not lose
- 6:28Speaker 3: our cool.
- 6:34Speaker 2: And just.
- 6:38Speaker 3: Pray that they go away, because I don't know what
- 6:43Speaker 3: will happen if force is used against these drones. But yes,
- 6:51Speaker 3: Orson Wells, H. G. Wells, the War of the worlds
- 6:57Speaker 3: has hit real life in New Jersey.
- 7:02Speaker 2: Would have thought.
- 7:04Speaker 3: That's if they have one leg up on them. And
- 7:07Speaker 3: I mean that across the board the FBI, there are
- 7:13Speaker 3: numbers you can call, by the way, if you want
- 7:18Speaker 3: to report drone sightings. I've got a couple of numbers
- 7:28Speaker 3: for you. Firstly, the FBI. You can call them.
- 7:41Speaker 2: If you have a sighting. And the FBI has already
- 7:51Speaker 2: said there's no.
- 7:53Speaker 3: Threat of national security or public threat, but it is suspicious.
- 8:08Speaker 3: But if you want to call the FBI about this,
- 8:11Speaker 3: call him at one eight hundred, call FBI, or just
- 8:16Speaker 3: submit another tip to tips dot FBI dot gov and
- 8:23Speaker 3: they'll be sure not to look at it. I'm just kidding, FBI.
- 8:27Speaker 3: You keep on these drones make Orson and H. G.
- 8:31Speaker 3: Wells proudly
