I listened to some of the show. It's when they got into the "secret Nazi UFO program" connection that their credibility vanished. Gee, thanks Germany. Not only did you start WW2, but you probably got us involved in an interstellar war as well.... ;)

Hoagland is really really annoying. Norry pays too much lip service to his guests. It's too bad Ian Punnett couldn't take over the show, he's actually kicked guests off when he realized they ran around questions asked.

Lot's of professional debunkers on this forum - is this getting a bit too hot?
Who cares about the messenger ... the message is worth considering.
There seems to be some real science behind the De Palma spinning ball experiments - and this story about the early rocket program seems to fit.
I wonder if this is related to the Aspden effect. This is the effect that allegedly it takes a lot less power to spin up a flywheel if you do this shortly after the flywheel has been spinning for some time and then stopped. It suggests that the fabric of space itself has inertia - and that rotating objects basically whip up a whirlpool in the fabric of space (aether vortex if you prefer), and this aether vortex takes some time to get established, but also takes some time to spin down again. So if you spin the flywheel for long enough, and then stop it - you can spin it up to speed again with a lot less power input. The crazy thing is that direction doesn't seem to matter.
Allegedly.
Only actual experiment is going to find this sort of stuff. Software won't be modeling this sort of non-Newtonian behaviour - but it doesn't mean it isn't fundamentally true.

Anything not related to elephants is irrelephant.
Another possibility of why a flywheel will spin up to speed faster immediately after stopping (the Aspden affect) is that the bearings and the oil in the bearings is still warm. Cold bearings are tighter than warm bearings. Cold oil is thicker than warm oil. A flywheel that has just stopped should require less energy to start up again due to warm bearings.
Maybe the Aspden effect is caused by a whirlpool in the fabric of space. A whirlpool causing the Aspden effect doesn't make sense to me. We see the whirlpool effect all the time as inertia. It doesn't seem to linger around long enough to cause residual effects at a later time.
