Hello everyone. Mel Fabregas here. I'm so glad I found this forum and the thread. It allows me to interact with those of you who have questions and it gives me the privilege to interact with you directly. I'll be delighted to elaborate.
I DON'T WANT TO BELIEVE. I WANT TO KNOW. Great words from Carl Sagan. These words inspired me to create the show. I don't want to believe anymore. I want to know. I just listened to your show two weeks ago for the first time. I like it.
And since when did you have to be an expert in Ufology to start a podcast? I hope you're not insinuating that you have to have a PhD in order to have high quality guests. Last time I checked, there is not one single university that offers a degree in UFOlogy. Someone said I don't challenge my guests? If your show only had 90 days of longevity, perhaps you would think hard to alienate guests so quickly. Different shows, different styles. Those who listen seem to be perfectly fine with that.
I am honored that someone would even mention my name. I believe The Paracast has been around for quite a long time. Congratulations! I have been doing this for 90 days. Prior to starting this show, I had never conducted an interview in my entire life. In these 90 days I have interviewed Richard Dolan, Stanton Friedman, Michael Salla, Nick Pope, Grant Cameron, Edgar Mitchell, Stephen Bassett, John Lear, Milton Torres and others. Coming soon? Timothy Good, Bob Emenegger, David Wilcock, etc. I am not condecending to my guests nor to my audience. I like to learn from my guests.
To find me, you don't need to ask third persons at a forum. Simply Google my name. It will take you directly to my website, where you can contact me directly and I'd be glad to respond. I don't hide behind the show. I like to interact with everyone.
I have never claimed to be an expert on anything. My expertise is in business, not in Ufology, the paranormal, etc. I'm just a curious person who one day decided that calling shows to ask questions was not enough. My curiosity and desire to talk to the people I listened at other shows was strong enough that one morning in December 2008 I saw Milton Torres (perhaps you know who he is) all over the television. I was channel surfing and almost every news channel had him on. However, they only had him for about 5 minutes. Here is a decorated US Air Force fighter pilot who is now telling his UFO encounter story, AFTER the British Ministry of Defense declassified his file. This is not the traditional military person who tells a story. He waited over 50 years to go public. So I was able to track him down. How would he talk to me? I'm sure he'll talk to me if I say I'm calling from a show. That's how Veritas was born. I needed a name for the show. I called him and he accepted to be interviewed. After that, I contacted Stephen Bassett who wanted to make contact with Dr. Torres, and while I was giving him the contact information I asked him if I could interview him too, and he accepted. 90 days later, that's where I am.
I created the show to have a platform that would allow me to ask the questions I always wanted to ask. As simple as that. So far, we have had people from 102 countries listen and I don't make any false claims. I don't have any broadcasting nor journalism experience. I'm not even a newbie. A newbie on radio usually has training. And yes, someone quoted what is written on my ABOUT section. I made it as simple as possible. The WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHEN AND WHY. Honestly, I don't like to talk about myself that much. The show is not about me; it is about the guests I bring.

Veritas Show Listen to a show or two. Give it a try. Read the guest book.
The mere fact someone is asking about who I am is a huge compliment. There are others in the field who are experts. My hat's off to them. I am not. I believe that is why in 90 days the show has attracted enough people to consider it an international show.
I hope this clear out any confusion about who I am. Do you really want to know about my time in Asia and my business experience and travels? No. That is boring. And no, you will not find any accolades, awards, honors, etc., about my 90 days on the cyber-air. Actualy, we're on the radio as of 3 weeks ago too. We haven't advertised anywhere, nor have we pushed to be known. It has been the listeners who have spread the word. And for that, I thank them. And I thank you for having this forum here, which allows me to introduce myself to your audience.
If you want to learn more about me and have some time to spare? Listen to my show. I trust you won't be disappointed. I wish you continued success with The Paracast! Oh, and thanks for noticing my nice looking wife. I'm a lucky guy, indeed!
In Veritas,
Mel Fabregas
