Retired U.S. Air Force Pararescueman and Special Tactics veteran Scott Gearen joins Rob at Contact in the Desert 2026 to share an extraordinary story of survival, consciousness, and the unexplained. Gearen recounts the 1987 parachuting accident that left him unconscious with an inoperable parachute, the near-death experience he says followed, his recovery and return to service, his time around RAF Woodbridge and Rendlesham Forest, and the UAP encounters that later led him to write Hiding in Plain Sight. From a voice telling him “it’s time to go now” to a strange changing object in the sky, this conversation explores the overlap between military experience, near-death phenomena, UFO sightings, consciousness, and disclosure.
