In this episode of The Bear Roars, Dan sits down with Lenval Logan—former intelligence analyst and member of the U.S. government’s UAP task force—to discuss his career in the military and intelligence community, and the work he’s done investigating unexplained aerial phenomena. From his early years maintaining B-52 bombers to briefing generals at the Pentagon, Logan’s path eventually led him to support efforts focused on identifying and analyzing objects that defy conventional explanation. Their conversation explores a range of topics, including military pilot reports of unidentified craft, the presence of unknown objects near nuclear sites, and the challenges of collecting credible data in a field often dismissed or ignored. Logan shares what it was like to be in the Pentagon on 9/11, how he became involved with the UAP task force, and why the stigma surrounding these reports has hindered both research and response. Dan and Logan also discuss the launch of Logan’s Phenom app, designed to allow the public to document and report sightings, as well as broader questions about transparency, government disclosure, and the psychological toll on service members who witness unexplained events. Whether you’re a skeptic or simply curious, Logan’s insights offer a measured, inside look at how the U.S. government has approached one of the most enduring mysteries of our time.
