February 19, 2005: UFOs and Coverups - Timothy Good #124; Poker Champion - Chris Moneymaker
Update: 2025-10-27
Description
What connects UFO coverups with the psychology of poker champions? Art presents an unusual double feature beginning with UFO researcher Timothy Good discussing government secrecy and disclosure ahead of ABC's major UFO special. Good examines decades of official coverups, witness testimonies, and the ongoing effort to keep UFO evidence from public scrutiny. The program then shifts to 2003 World Series of Poker champion Chris Moneymaker, the Tennessee accountant who transformed a $40 entry fee into $2.5 million and sparked poker's television revolution. Moneymaker discusses the explosion of poker popularity driven by televised tournaments where viewers can see players' cards, creating the "purest form of reality TV." He explains poker psychology, reading tells, strategic aggression, and how knowing your opponent's mental state becomes the ultimate advantage. This eclectic combination reflects Art's philosophy that the program covers whatever strikes his interest, from extraterrestrial mysteries to human psychology and the art of deception in high-stakes competition.
